Amit Blecher

Founder of Trade Manager. Writes the guides on this site and runs the backtests behind them.

Amit builds Trade Manager, a tool that turns a trading setup into scanner rules you can read, backtests them against real historical bars, and sends an alert when they fire. The guides here come out of that work: each one is a question he wanted answered, tested on real data with the same engine that runs live.

How the backtests are run

Every test replays the strategy bar by bar using the same evaluation code as the live scanner, so a result isn't produced by a separate, friendlier model.
A trade opens at the next bar's open and exits exactly at the stated target or stop.
The universe is the index as it stands today. Companies removed during the test window are missing, and removals skew toward poor performers, so real results would likely be worse.
No slippage or commissions are modelled. That also flatters the result.
Every test is published whether it made money or not. Three of the four strategies tested across all 503 S&P 500 stocks so far lost money, and those pages are up with the rest.

What this isn't

Nothing on this site is financial advice, and Amit is not a licensed financial adviser. Trade Manager does not place trades or manage money. A backtest describes what a set of rules did on past data; it is not a prediction.
