1. Set a Trading Strategy

Decide the rules for your trade. For example: “Buy when the moving average crosses above, sell when it crosses below.”

2. Choose Indicators & Parameters

Algorithms use technical indicators like RSI, MACD, Moving Averages, or Price Action to detect signals and execute trades.

3. Backtesting

Before running live, strategies are tested on past market data. This helps evaluate how the strategy would have performed historically.

4. Automation

Once finalized, the algorithm executes trades automatically on your trading account using API integration — no manual clicking required.

5. Monitoring & Adjusting

Although trades are automated, traders can still monitor performance and adjust strategies as needed to adapt to market conditions.

At Market Mentor, we provide the platform, tools, and guidance you need to create, test, and deploy automated strategies — even if you’re a beginner.
