VOLATILITY-BASED STOCK TRADING
Most trading strategies focus on predicting whether a stock will go up or down.
But the stock market doesn’t move in just two directions
It moves up, down, and sideways — and each of those movements creates opportunity.

Here's how Tactical Trading works:
Every Tactical Trading cycle begins with three user-defined parameters:
- A Cycle Series
- Shares Per Series
- A Trade Range
From those three inputs, Tactical Trading calculates your initial buy and sell limit orders. Whenever one order fills, the algorithm immediately calculates the next order, guiding you through the entire trade cycle until completion.
Behind the scenes, these calculations are performed by a tempered martingale algorithm based on a numerical cancellation system. While this example focuses on stock trades, the system is also effective for ETFs, options, futures, and crypto.
Walk Through a Complete Tactical Trading Cycle In Five Minutes...
The core of the Tactical Trading System is the tempered martingale algorithm which provides an exact solution to a two-occurrence random walk, though randomness is not a requirement for Tactical Trading. The algorithm operates by manipulating a numerical series generally referred to as a "Cancellation System". While this example focuses on stock trades, the system is also effective for ETFs, options, futures, and crypto.
There are three main components to the Tactical Trading system: a numerical series called the "Cycle Series," a share multiplier known as the "Shares Per Series," and the "Trade Range," which is the dollar price move required to trigger a buy or sell order.
1) Choose a "Cycle Series" of numbers, such as 1,2,3,4. Any series of positive consecutive numbers will do. These numbers drive the system.
1, 2, 3, 4
2) Decide on the "Shares Per Series" number. It is used by the number series to calculate how many shares to own. It can be any positive number.

3) Using the included volatility analysis and simulation tools, determine the optimal price move, "Trade Range", required to trigger a buy or sell.

The system predicts what the profit will be in advance of trading. This is calculated by summing the number series (1+2+3+4 = 10) multiplied by the shares per series (100), then multiplied by the trade range ($1).
10 x 100 x $1 = $1000
The number series, or "Cycle Series", tells you how many shares to own at any time. Get this by summing the two end numbers of the cycle series (1+4 = 5) and multiplying by the shares per series number.
5 x 100 = 500 shares
These numbers create what is called a "Cycle". This cycle starts by buying 500 shares. The cycle series is in control. If the stock moves up by the trade range ($1), a win, the system tells us to remove the two end numbers.
If the stock moves down by the $1 trade range, a loss, the system sums the two end numbers of the cycle series (1+4 = 5) and adds that number to the end of the current series. This makes the new series:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5
When the stock moves up or down by the trade range this triggers an "action", a buy or sell order. You will know how many shares to buy or sell by summing the two end numbers and multiplying by the shares per series.
Let's trade a $10 stock
Using the cycle series 1, 2, 3, 4 we know to buy 500 shares. This is determined by summing the two end numbers ( 1 and 4) multiplied by the shares per series (SPS).
Buy 500 shares at $10
Cycle History

Shares Owned
Buy 500 at $10
1, 2, 3, 4
500
Now create two limit orders. Recall that the system knows if the stock has a win action (goes up by the $1 trade range) we cross off the series end numbers. 1, 2, 3, 4 becomes 2, 3. Sum the end numbers multiplied by the SPS.
WIN = Own 500 shares
We know that if the stock goes up by the $1 trade range the system wants us to own 500 shares. Since we already own 500 shares, the upper limit order becomes what is called a "No Action". If the stock moves from $10 to $11:
No Action (NA) at $11
If the stock moves down by the $1 trade range this creates a loss. When a loss occurs the system sums the series' two end numbers and adds that number to the end of the current series.
1, 2, 3, 4 => 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
With the new series of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 if the stock moves down by the trade range we are to hold 600 shares (1 + 5) x 100. To get the loss order we subtract the current shares (500) from the required shares (600).
600 - 500 = 100
The downside limit order is to buy 100 shares. The current price of $10 minus the $1 trade range gives us an action price of $9. We place a "Good Until Cancelled" order to:
Buy 100 at $9 Limit GTC
Our $10 stock now has two actions corresponding to a "Win" and a "Loss". When the stock moves up or down by the trade range of $1 an action will occur and trigger an order, which are:
No Action (NA) at $11
Buy 100 at $9 Limit
The stock goes down by $1 to $9 and triggers our buy order and we must cancel the opposing order, No Action. The system now owns 600 shares. Since this action is a loss we sum the two end numbers and add the result to the end of the current cycle.
1, 2, 3, 4 => 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

The system now calculates the next two limit orders. The current series is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. If the stock goes from $9 to $10 (win) we cross off the two end numbers and the new win series is:
2, 3, 4
If the stock moves down in price (loss) from $9 to $8 the system sums the two end numbers from the current series of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 which is 6, and puts it a the end. The new loss series is:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Now the system calculates the next two limit orders by summing the end numbers and multiplying by the SPS. This calculation tells us how many shares we should hold:
If Win Own 600
If Loss Own 700
We currently hold 600 shares and the last action was at $9. Therefore, the next limit orders are:
No Action (NA) at $10
Buy 100 at $8 Limit
The stock goes up by $1 from $9 to $10 and triggers our No Action order. The buy order is cancelled. The system still owns 600 shares. The win action causes the system to cross off the two end numbers from the current series:

The system now calculates the next two limit orders. The current series is 2, 3, 4. If the stock goes from $10 to $11 (win) we cross off the two end numbers and the new win series is:

If the stock moves down in price (loss) from $10 to $9 the system sums the two end numbers from the current series of 2, 3, 4 which is 6, and puts it a the end. The new loss series is:
2, 3, 4, 6
Again, the system calculates the next two limit orders by summing the end numbers and multiplying by the SPS. A single digit series counts as the end number. This calculation tells us how many shares we should hold:
If Win Own 300
If Loss Own 800
We currently hold 600 shares and the last action was at $10 so the next limit orders are:
Sell 300 at $11 Limit
Buy 200 at $9 Limit
The stock jumps up to $11 (win) and we sold 300 shares. The open buy order is cancelled and we now own 300 shares. The win tells the system to cross off the two end numbers. The current series is 3, the end number.

If the stock goes down from $11 to $10 (loss) the system sums the two end numbers (there is only one number left) from the current series of 3 which is 3, and puts it a the end. The new loss series is:
3, 3
Given the current series of 3 the system calculates the next two limit orders by summing the end numbers and multiplying by the SPS. This calculation tells us how many shares we should hold:
If Win Own 0
If Loss Own 600
We now hold 300 shares and the last action was at $11. If the stock goes to $12 the cycle series ends, so the next limit orders are:
Sell 300 at $12 Limit
Buy 300 at $11 Limit
Our stock makes a move up from $11 to $12 (win). The order to sell 300 shares is executed and we cancel the open order to buy. All series numbers have been crossed off, and the cycle series ends.

With the new series of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 if the stock moves down by the trade range we are to hold 600 shares (1 + 5) x 100. To get the loss order we subtract the current shares (500) from the required shares (600).
600 - 500 = 100
The downside limit order is to buy 100 shares. The current price of $10 minus the $1 trade range gives us an action price of $9. We place a "Good Until Cancelled" order to:
Buy 100 at $9 Limit GTC
Our $10 stock now has two actions corresponding to a "Win" and a "Loss". When the stock moves up or down by the trade range of $1 an action will occur and trigger an order, which are:

The system predicts what the profit will be in advance of trading. This is calculated by summing the number series (1+2+3+4 = 10) multiplied by the shares per series (100), then multiplied by the trade range ($1).
10 x 100 x $1 = $1000
The number series, or "Cycle Series", tells you how many shares to own at any time. Get this by summing the two end numbers of the cycle series (1+4 = 5) and multiplying by the shares per series number.
5 x 100 = 500 shares
These numbers create what is called a "Cycle". This cycle starts by buying 500 shares. The cycle series is in control. If the stock moves up by the trade range ($1), a win, the system tells us to remove the two end numbers.
If the stock moves down by the $1 trade range, a loss, the system sums the two end numbers of the cycle series (1+4 = 5) and adds that number to the end of the current series. This makes the new series:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5
When the stock moves up or down by the trade range this triggers an "action", a buy or sell order. You will know how many shares to buy or sell by summing the two end numbers and multiplying by the shares per series.
Let's trade a $10 stock

Now create two limit orders. Recall that the system knows that if the stock has a win action (goes up by the $1 trade range) we cross off the series end numbers. 1, 2, 3, 4 becomes 2, 3. Sum the end numbers multiplied by the SPS.
WIN = Own 500 shares
We know that if the stock goes up by the $1 trade range the system wants us to own 500 shares. Since we already own 500 shares, the upper limit order becomes what is called a "No Action". If the stock moves from $10 to $11:
No Action (NA) at $11
If the stock moves down by the $1 trade range this creates a loss. When a loss occurs the system sums the series' two end numbers and adds that number to the end of the current series.
1, 2, 3, 4 => 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
With the new series of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 if the stock moves down by the trade range we are to hold 600 shares (1 + 5) x 100. To get the loss order we subtract the current shares (500) from the required shares (600).
600 - 500 = 100
The downside limit order is to buy 100 shares. The current price of $10 minus the $1 trade range gives us an action price of $9. We place a "Good Until Cancelled" order to:
Buy 100 at $9 Limit GTC
Our $10 stock now has two actions corresponding to a "Win" and a "Loss". When the stock moves up or down by the trade range of $1 an action will occur and trigger an order, which are:
No Action (NA) at $11
Buy 100 at $9 Limit
The stock goes down by $1 to $9 and triggers our buy order and we must cancel the opposing order, No Action. The system now owns 600 shares. Since this action is a loss we sum the two end numbers and add the result to the end of the current cycle.
1, 2, 3, 4 => 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

The system now calculates the next two limit orders. The current series is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. If the stock goes from $9 to $10 (win) we cross off the two end numbers and the new win series is:
2, 3, 4
If the stock moves down in price (loss) from $9 to $8 the system sums the two end numbers from the current series of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 which is 6, and puts it a the end. The new loss series is:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Now the system calculates the next two limit orders by summing the end numbers and multiplying by the SPS. This calculation tells us how many shares we should hold:
If Win Own 600
If Loss Own 700
We currently hold 600 shares and the last action was at $9. Therefore, the next limit orders are:
No Action (NA) at $10
Buy 100 at $8 Limit
The stock goes up by $1 from $9 to $10 and triggers our No Action (NA) order. The buy order is cancelled. The system still owns 600 shares. The win action causes the system to cross off the two end numbers from the current series:

The system now calculates the next two limit orders. The current series is 2, 3, 4. If the stock goes from $10 to $11 (win) we cross off the two end numbers and the new win series is:
3
If the stock moves down in price (loss) from $10 to $9 the system sums the two end numbers from the current series of 2, 3, 4 which is 6, and puts it a the end. The new loss series is:
2, 3, 4, 6
Again, the system calculates the next two limit orders by summing the end numbers and multiplying by the SPS. A single digit series counts as the end number. This calculation tells us how many shares we should hold:
If Win Own 300
If Loss Own 800
We currently hold 600 shares and the last action was at $10 so the next limit orders are:
Sell 300 at $11 Limit
Buy 200 at $9 Limit
The stock jumps up to $11 (win) and we sold 300 shares. The open buy order is cancelled and we now own 300 shares. The win tells the system to cross off the two end numbers. The current series is 3, the end number.
2, 3, 4 => 3

If the stock goes down from $11 to $10 (loss) the system sums the two end numbers (there is only one number left) from the current series of 3 which is 3, and puts it a the end. The new loss series is:
3, 3
Given the current series of 3 the system calculates the next two limit orders by summing the end numbers and multiplying by the SPS. This calculation tells us how many shares we should hold:
If Win Own 0
If Loss Own 600
We now hold 300 shares and the last action was at $11. If the stock goes to $12 the cycle series ends, so the next limit orders are:
Sell 300 at $12 Limit
Buy 300 at $11 Limit
Our stock makes a move up from $11 to $12 (win). The order to sell 300 shares is executed and we cancel the open order to buy. All series numbers have been crossed off, and the cycle series ends.

The predicted profit of $1000 is realized
This example illustrates a typical Tactical Trading cycle. The projected cycle profit is calculated before the first trade is placed. Once the cycle begins, the algorithm determines every subsequent buy and sell target, regardless of the sequence of price movements or the time required to complete the cycle. It is important to note that the projected profit is independent of the stock price, therefore the system parameters can be adjusted to make the profit a desired percent of the initial investment.
This example is typical of any Tactical Trading Cycle. The cycle profit is known ahead of time, and regardless of how random the up-and-down price movements are, the order of buys and sells, or how long it takes for the cycle to conclude, the profit is virtually guaranteed. It is important to note that the known profit is independent of the stock price, therefore the system parameters can be adjusted to make the profit a desired percent of the initial investment.

The Demo allows you to run cycles on random win/loss patterns, alternating win/loss sequences, or manually input win/loss outcomes.
Volatility Analysis
Volatility Analysis
Volatility is the cornerstone of profitability with the Tactical Trading System. Our advanced volatility analysis tools offer a clear view of a stock’s volatility across multiple time frames.
Here, you'll find charts that highlight unusual price spikes, a risk scatterplot, and our proprietary '5-Lines' linear regression. Over time, you’ll become adept at interpreting these visuals to determine if a stock is suitable for Tactical Trading.
Additionally, we provide a calculation of the stock's 'expected daily move,' which helps define the ideal Trade Range within the system.
Another proprietary indicator, the RVR (Reward vs Risk), evaluates whether a stock’s volatility aligns with its return performance, helping you assess the stock's profit potential.
Simulation
Simulation
This module lets you simulate how the Tactical Trading System would have performed based on your selected cycle parameters.
You can choose any time frame and adjust series numbers, shares per series, and trade range.
The simulation can run trade by trade or automatically over your chosen time frame.
It’s an excellent tool for testing the system through various price patterns to assess how well Tactical Trading would have performed.
Also included is the Simulation Optimizer, which runs multiple simulations to identify the most profitable Trading Range.
