Strategy Research Framework

策略研究框架

The goal is to move from a vague idea to a well-documented, testable strategy with clearly defined rules and edge hypothesis.
目标是从模糊的想法转变为规则清晰、可测试且带有明确边缘假设的文档化策略。

Phase 1: Edge Hypothesis Formation

第一阶段:边缘假设形成

UltraThink for Edge Hypothesis: Before defining the edge, activate deep thinking:
🗣 Say: "Let me ultrathink the fundamental edge hypothesis before we document this strategy."
Question from first principles:
  • Why would this edge exist in efficient markets?
  • What market participants create this inefficiency?
  • Why hasn't this edge been arbitraged away?
  • What's our edge over professional traders?
  • What assumptions am I making about market structure?
  • Is this a real edge or data-fitting coincidence?
  • What market regime change would invalidate this edge?
Red flags that require UltraThink:
  • Edge based on single indicator or pattern
  • Works only in specific historical period
  • No clear explanation WHY it should work
  • Requires perfect timing or execution
  • Based on curve-fitting or optimization
After UltraThink: Formulate edge hypothesis with clear explanation of the market mechanism being exploited.
Core Questions to Ask:
  1. What is the edge?
    • What market inefficiency are you exploiting?
    • Why should this strategy make money?
    • What gives you an advantage over other market participants?
  2. Market conditions where it works:
    • Trending or ranging markets?
    • High or low volatility environments?
    • Specific market phases (accumulation, markup, distribution, markdown)?
    • Time of day or session considerations?
  3. Why should this work?
    • Is there a logical basis (behavioral finance, liquidity patterns, etc.)?
    • Has it been observed repeatedly?
    • What is the underlying market mechanism?
Red Flags (Potential Issues with the Edge):
  • Based on curve-fitting or cherry-picked examples
  • Works only in very specific historical periods
  • No logical explanation for why it should work
  • Too complex (many conditions = overfitting risk)
  • Requires perfect timing or execution
UltraThink用于边缘假设: 在定义边缘之前,启动深度思考:
🗣 说:“在记录这个策略之前,让我用UltraThink深入思考核心边缘假设。”
从第一性原理出发的问题:
  • 为什么这个边缘会在有效市场中存在?
  • 是哪些市场参与者造成了这种无效性?
  • 为什么这个边缘没有被套利消除?
  • 与专业交易者相比,我们的优势是什么?
  • 我对市场结构做了哪些假设?
  • 这是真实的边缘还是数据拟合的巧合?
  • 什么样的市场机制变化会使这个边缘失效?
需要启动UltraThink的危险信号:
  • 基于单一指标或形态的边缘
  • 仅在特定历史时期有效
  • 没有清晰的有效原因解释
  • 需要完美的时机或执行
  • 基于曲线拟合或过度优化
UltraThink之后: 形成带有明确市场机制解释的边缘假设。
核心问题:
  1. 什么是边缘?
    • 你要利用的市场无效性是什么?
    • 这个策略为什么能盈利?
    • 与其他市场参与者相比,你的优势是什么?
  2. 策略有效的市场条件:
    • 趋势市还是震荡市?
    • 高波动还是低波动环境?
    • 特定市场阶段(积累、上涨、派发、下跌)?
    • 时间或交易时段的考虑?
  3. 为什么它应该有效?
    • 是否有逻辑依据(行为金融学、流动性模式等)?
    • 是否被反复观察到?
    • 背后的市场机制是什么?
边缘的危险信号(潜在问题):
  • 基于曲线拟合或精心挑选的例子
  • 仅在非常特定的历史时期有效
  • 没有合理的有效原因解释
  • 过于复杂(过多条件=过拟合风险)
  • 需要完美的时机或执行

Phase 2: Strategy Definition

第二阶段:策略定义

Guide the user through defining these core elements:
引导用户明确以下核心要素:

1. Entry Conditions

1. 入场条件

Specify exactly when to enter a trade:
  • Technical indicators and their values
  • Chart patterns or price action setups
  • Confirmation requirements
  • Timeframe considerations
  • Confluence factors (multiple signals aligning)
Example:
Enter LONG when:
1. Price is above 200-day MA (daily timeframe)
2. RSI crosses above 50 (4H timeframe)
3. MACD histogram turns positive (4H timeframe)
4. Price breaks above prior swing high with volume > 1.5x average
5. All conditions must align within 4 candles
明确触发入场的具体条件:
  • 技术指标及其数值
  • K线形态或价格行动信号
  • 确认要求
  • 时间框架考虑
  • 共振因素(多个信号同时出现)
示例:
做多入场条件:
1. 价格在日线级别200日MA上方
2. 4小时级别RSI上穿50
3. 4小时级别MACD柱状线转为正值
4. 价格突破前期高点且成交量大于平均成交量1.5倍
5. 所有条件必须在4根K线内同时满足

2. Exit Strategy

2. 离场策略

Define exit rules for both wins and losses:
Profit Targets:
  • Fixed target (e.g., 2% gain, $100 move)
  • Technical target (resistance, measured move, Fibonacci)
  • Trailing stop mechanism
  • Partial profit-taking rules
Stop Loss:
  • Fixed stop distance (e.g., 1% below entry)
  • Technical stop (below support, below entry candle low)
  • Time-based stop (exit if no progress after X periods)
  • Volatility-based stop (e.g., 2x ATR)
Example:
Exit Rules:
- Stop Loss: Below entry candle low OR 1.5% from entry (whichever is closer)
- Target 1: Risk 1:2 ratio (take 50% position off)
- Target 2: Risk 1:3 ratio (take remaining 50% off)
- Trailing Stop: After Target 1 hit, move stop to breakeven
- Time Stop: Exit at market close if still in trade
定义盈利和亏损情况下的离场规则:
盈利目标:
  • 固定目标(如2%涨幅、100美元波动)
  • 技术目标(阻力位、测算目标、斐波那契位)
  • 追踪止损机制
  • 部分止盈规则
止损:
  • 固定止损距离(如入场价下方1%)
  • 技术止损(支撑位下方、入场K线低点下方)
  • 时间止损(X周期内无进展则离场)
  • 波动率止损(如2倍ATR)
示例:
离场规则:
- 止损:入场K线低点下方 或 入场价下方1.5%(取较近者)
- 目标1:风险收益比1:2(平仓50%仓位)
- 目标2:风险收益比1:3(平仓剩余50%仓位)
- 追踪止损:达到目标1后,将止损移至盈亏平衡点
- 时间止损:若持仓至收盘则离场

3. Position Sizing & Risk Management

3. 仓位管理与风险管理

Risk per trade:
  • Fixed % of capital (e.g., 1% risk per trade)
  • Fixed dollar amount (e.g., $100 risk per trade)
  • Volatility-adjusted sizing (larger positions in low volatility)
Maximum exposure:
  • Max simultaneous positions
  • Max correlated positions
  • Max sector/market exposure
Example:
Risk Management:
- Risk 1% of account per trade
- Maximum 3 simultaneous positions
- No more than 2 positions in same sector
- Calculate position size: (Account Size × 1%) / (Entry - Stop Loss)
每笔交易风险:
  • 固定比例资金(如每笔交易风险1%资金)
  • 固定金额(如每笔交易风险100美元)
  • 波动率调整仓位(低波动环境下仓位更大)
最大暴露限制:
  • 最大同时持仓数
  • 最大关联持仓数
  • 最大板块/市场暴露
示例:
风险管理:
- 每笔交易风险为账户资金的1%
- 最多同时持有3个仓位
- 同一板块持仓不超过2个
- 仓位计算:(账户资金 × 1%) / (入场价 - 止损价)

4. Timeframe & Market Selection

4. 时间框架与市场选择

Trading timeframe:
  • Chart timeframe for entries (1H, 4H, Daily, etc.)
  • Higher timeframe for context
  • Lower timeframe for precision entries
Markets:
  • Which assets does this work on? (stocks, crypto, forex, commodities)
  • Specific instruments or broad applicability?
  • Liquidity requirements
交易时间框架:
  • 入场用的K线时间框架(1小时、4小时、日线等)
  • 用于判断大趋势的更高时间框架
  • 用于精准入场的更低时间框架
市场:
  • 适用于哪些资产?(股票、加密货币、外汇、商品)
  • 特定品种还是广泛适用?
  • 流动性要求

5. Market Conditions Filter

5. 市场条件过滤器

When NOT to trade this strategy:
  • Avoid during low liquidity periods
  • Avoid during major news events
  • Avoid in choppy/ranging markets (if trend strategy)
  • Avoid in trending markets (if mean-reversion strategy)
何时不应使用此策略:
  • 避免低流动性时段
  • 避免重大新闻事件期间
  • 震荡市中避免使用趋势策略
  • 趋势市中避免使用均值回归策略

Phase 3: Edge Validation

第三阶段:边缘验证

UltraThink Critical Validation: Edge validation is where most strategies fail. Question deeply:
🗣 Say: "Let me ultrathink the edge validation before confirming this strategy is viable."
Questions to ultrathink:
  • Am I rationalizing because I want this to work?
  • What's the strongest argument AGAINST this strategy?
  • Would I trade this with real money today?
  • What do I know that the market doesn't know?
  • If this edge is real, why aren't others exploiting it?
  • What's my confirmation bias hiding from me?
  • What would change my mind about this edge?
After UltraThink: Provide honest assessment of edge validity with clear invalidation criteria.
Critical thinking questions:
  1. Positive Expectancy Check:
    • If win rate is X%, is average win > average loss enough to be profitable?
    • Example: 40% win rate needs avg win > 1.5x avg loss to break even
  2. Execution Feasibility:
    • Can this be executed with reasonable slippage and commissions?
    • Is there sufficient liquidity for your position sizes?
    • Are you able to monitor and execute during required hours?
  3. Psychological Feasibility:
    • Can you handle the expected drawdown?
    • Is the win rate psychologically tolerable?
    • Can you follow the rules consistently?
  4. Market Regime Dependency:
    • Does this require specific market conditions?
    • What happens when market regime shifts?
    • How will you know when to stop trading it?
  5. Backtest Considerations:
    • Sufficient historical data available?
    • Sample size large enough (ideally 100+ trades)?
    • Transaction costs and slippage included?
UltraThink关键验证: 边缘验证是大多数策略失败的环节。深入质疑:
🗣 说:“在确认策略可行之前,让我用UltraThink深入思考边缘验证问题。”
需要深入思考的问题:
  • 我是不是因为希望它有效而在合理化?
  • 反对这个策略的最有力论点是什么?
  • 我现在会用真金白银交易这个策略吗?
  • 我知道哪些市场不知道的信息?
  • 如果这个边缘是真实的,为什么其他人没有利用它?
  • 我的确认偏差在隐藏什么?
  • 什么会改变我对这个边缘的看法?
UltraThink之后: 对边缘有效性给出诚实评估,并明确失效标准。
批判性思考问题:
  1. 正期望值检查:
    • 如果胜率为X%,平均盈利是否足够大于平均亏损以实现盈利?
    • 示例:40%胜率需要平均盈利大于平均亏损1.5倍才能保本
  2. 执行可行性:
    • 在合理滑点和佣金下能否执行?
    • 你的仓位规模是否有足够流动性?
    • 你能否在所需时段内监控并执行交易?
  3. 心理可行性:
    • 你能否承受预期的回撤?
    • 胜率是否在心理可接受范围内?
    • 你能否持续遵守规则?
  4. 市场机制依赖性:
    • 是否需要特定的市场条件?
    • 市场机制转变时会发生什么?
    • 你如何判断何时停止使用该策略?
  5. 回测考虑:
    • 是否有足够的历史数据?
    • 样本量是否足够大(理想情况100+笔交易)?
    • 是否包含交易成本和滑点?

Workflow Summary

工作流程总结

When a user wants to research a strategy, guide them through this process:
  1. Start with the Edge
    • "What market inefficiency are you trying to exploit?"
    • "Why should this make money?"
  2. Define Entry Rules
    • "What exactly triggers an entry?"
    • "What confirmations do you need?"
  3. Define Exit Rules
    • "Where is your stop loss?"
    • "What are your profit targets?"
    • "How do you manage the trade?"
  4. Risk Management
    • "How much do you risk per trade?"
    • "What are your exposure limits?"
  5. Validate the Edge

    • “为什么这个策略能盈利?”
  2. 定义入场规则
    • “触发入场的具体条件是什么?”
    • “你需要哪些确认信号?”
  3. 定义离场规则
    • “你的止损设置在哪里?”
    • “你的盈利目标是什么?”
    • “你如何管理持仓?”
  4. 风险管理
    • “你每笔交易的风险是多少?”
    • “你的暴露限制是什么?”
  5. 验证边缘
    • “这个策略可执行吗?”
    • “它有正期望值吗?”
    • “你可以回测它吗?”
  6. 记录所有内容
    • 使用Write工具 创建策略文档
    • 包含所有规则和条件
    • 制定回测计划

Guiding Principles

指导原则

  1. Simplicity over complexity: Fewer rules = less overfitting
  2. Logical edge: Must have a reason why it works
  3. Clear rules: No ambiguity in entry/exit
  4. Risk-first mindset: Define risk before profit targets
  5. Testable: Strategy must be backtestable
  6. Executable: Must be tradeable with real market conditions
  1. 简洁优于复杂: 规则越少=过拟合风险越低
  2. 逻辑化边缘: 必须有有效的原因解释
  3. 清晰的规则: 入场/离场无歧义
  4. 风险优先思维: 先定义风险再设定盈利目标
  5. 可测试: 策略必须可回测
  6. 可执行: 必须在真实市场条件下可交易

Red Flags to Watch For

需要警惕的危险信号

  • Vague rules ("enter when momentum is strong")
  • Too many conditions (likely overfitted)
  • No logical edge explanation
  • Unrealistic expectations (90%+ win rate claims)
  • No risk management defined
  • Can't be backtested objectively
When you spot these, push back and help the user refine their approach.
  • 模糊的规则(如“动量强劲时入场”)
  • 过多的条件(可能过拟合)
  • 没有逻辑化的边缘解释
  • 不切实际的预期(如声称90%+胜率)
  • 未定义风险管理
  • 无法客观回测
当发现这些信号时,及时指出并帮助用户优化他们的方法。

Example Interaction

示例交互

User: "I think buying dips when RSI is oversold works well."
Your Response: "Let's develop this into a systematic strategy. First, let's clarify the edge:
  1. What timeframe are you using for RSI?
  2. What RSI level defines 'oversold' (30? 20?)?
  3. What market conditions does this work in (trending up? ranging?)?
  4. Where would you place your stop loss?
  5. What's your profit target?
  6. Why should this work? (What's the underlying edge?)
Once we define these, we can create a complete strategy document and backtest plan."
Then guide them through the full framework above, filling in each section systematically.
用户: “我认为RSI超卖时抄底效果很好。”
你的回复: “让我们把这个想法发展成系统化的策略。首先,我们明确边缘:
  1. 你使用的RSI时间框架是什么?
  2. 什么RSI水平定义为‘超卖’(30?20?)?
  3. 这个策略在什么市场条件下有效(上涨趋势?震荡市?)?
  4. 你会把止损设置在哪里?
  5. 你的盈利目标是什么?
  6. 为什么这个策略应该有效?(背后的边缘是什么?)
一旦我们明确这些内容,我们就可以创建完整的策略文档和回测计划。"
然后系统地引导他们完成上述整个框架,逐一填充每个章节。
