Kevin Craig E Gittins / Profile

Professional Background
With 19 years of experience in IT and Account Management, I transitioned to full-time trading 5 years ago while maintaining my involvement in the technology sector. This unique combination of technical expertise and trading experience allows me to bridge the gap between robust software development and profitable algorithmic trading.

Trading Philosophy & Approach
I specialize in creating algorithms with robust edges at their core - not flashy systems that work for a few months, but sustainable strategies built to perform consistently over time. My approach is methodical and analytical, leveraging clear rule-based systems that remove emotion from trading decisions.

Algorithm Development Standards
Every algorithm I develop adheres to strict quality standards:

* Premium Data Foundation: Built exclusively on the highest quality tick data available
* Extensive Historical Testing: Minimum 10-year backtesting periods to ensure statistical significance
* No Curve Fitting: Strategies are designed for real market conditions, not optimized for historical perfection
* Comprehensive Validation: Rigorous testing protocols including:
* In-Sample (IS) and Out-of-Sample (OOS) analysis
* Walk Forward Matrix optimization
* Monte Carlo simulations for risk assessment

Portfolio-Focused Design
Unlike single-asset strategies, my algorithms are designed to build diversified portfolios. This approach reduces risk while maximizing opportunities across multiple markets and setups, providing more stable and consistent returns.

Why Algorithmic Trading?
The transition from manual to algorithmic trading was natural given my analytical mindset and IT background. I'm drawn to the precision and objectivity that algorithms provide - eliminating the psychological challenges that affect manual trading while maintaining the strategic edge that comes from deep market understanding.

What You Can Expect
When you purchase my algorithms, you're getting:

✅ Thoroughly tested, robust strategies
✅ Clear documentation and setup instructions
✅ Ongoing support and guidance
✅ Algorithms designed for long-term profitability, not short-term gains
