Trading Strategies
Proven trading strategies, each backtested daily by Tradewink AI against the top 10 tickers. All stats below are live results from the latest backtest run.
How Tradewink selects the right strategy for every market condition
Every strategy in the library belongs to one of four major families: trend-following, mean reversion, volatility-based, and event-driven. Each family has a distinct edge profile — and, critically, each works best in a specific market regime. A momentum breakout that thrives in a trending tape will bleed in a choppy, range-bound environment. An iron condor that collects premium beautifully during low-volatility periods gets crushed when realized volatility spikes.
Tradewink resolves this with a two-layer regime detection system. First, a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) trained on SPY daily returns classifies the macro environment as trending, mean-reverting, or volatile — updating each session. Second, an intraday overlay measures the 5-minute efficiency ratio on SPY to catch intraday regime flips in real time. Together these signals determine which strategy families are active for each scan cycle. Learn more about market regime detection.
The result: you are never running a mean-reversion playbook into a strong trend, or chasing breakouts in a directionless tape. The AI adapts the strategy mix automatically — the 16 strategies below are always filtered by the current regime before any signal reaches your feed.
