This online course shows you how to build an automated spread trading model using MS Excel. The System captures the price difference between security pairs of any type - indexes, stocks, futures, options, LEAPs, currencies. The System uses three proven technical indicators - exponential moving averages, Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO), and Donchian Channels - to capture spread movements when profits are likely to be greatest. Includes three spread strategies for Swiss Franc - Japanese Yen futures, Nasdaq - S&P 500 E-Mini, and 10-Year vs 5-Year U.S. Treasury Notes. The System is optimized for use with daily or hourly data, but can be used on any time interval. You are shown how to build a data "hub" with a DDE link, or run the model with free .csv data files from Yahoo! Finance or another source. Also included is a complete backtesting model -- simply import historical data and see statistical and graphical results for your chosen spread strategy.
