"We test an equity pairs trading strategy that uses historical return correlations to determine pairs...We find that a trading strategy that bets on this convergence generates... alphas of up to 36% annually for an equal-weighted [unlevered] portfolio.”
Empirical Investigation of an Equity Pairs Trading Strategy, Huafeng Chen, Shaojun Chen, Feng Li, September 2012
"Including transaction costs, robust strategies...are the following: Cointegration [pair trading selection method] whatever the length of the formation period or the opening trigger. Returns are especially high with monthly excess returns, including transaction costs, greater that 1.38% and going up to about 5% over a period of more than 10 years. These are clearly the main and most impressive empirical finding of this article.”
Pairs trading and selection methods: is cointegration superior? , Nicolas Huck & Komivi Afawubo, 2015

- M. Weiss
“I have worked in the computer industry for over 30 years and I was a Beta Tester for AIQ software, also a stock trading and system development platform. Your product, PairTrade Finder PRO, has great potential. PRO's ability to crunch all the pairs possibilities is impressive. The ability to then monitor the trades in real time and alert to signals is also impressive. Your potential for success in the USA is great. Thanks!”

“I started pairs trading about 5 years ago and saw good results from it even though I did not understand it as well as I do now. My issue then was not having the time for all the analysis as my business took up a lot of time. It was very hard to find software to help. I now have more time on my hands and have spent a lot of time learning more about pairs trading. I am far more a chartist by skill with an understanding of financials than a gifted programmer who is a mathematician. I am far more interested in running a good system that makes money safely and pairs trading ticks that box. I think it is important to understand what you are doing and why it works. Pairs trading is easy to understand. It is a sound concept that is logic. I love trading, but I want to look after the money I have made. I do not want to stress about the next market crash. Pairs trading gives you peace of mind and opportunity to make money. Do it properly and you will make money. PTF PRO makes it easy to find pairs. Easy to analyse and is great with trading signals. Your videos and additional studies makes it easy to understand the graphs. It saves thousands of hours of work. I also use pairtradinglab, and other software like sharescope, but it is PTF that is the key to making it all work easily. I use the other software mainly for verification purposes and also to do research. My only fear with PTF is what happens to traders reliant on PTF if it gets withdrawn from the market. Thank you for creating PTF and sharing wealth with the man in the street!”
- Jeremy D.
“I work as a Chartered Investment Adviser now (Fellow) - worked in the City as a stock broker, back in the day, and have done well out of pairs trading in the past. It is literally the only hedge strategy that works with any consistency. Very impressed with PTF - my only concern is becoming too reliant on it and then, for whatever reason, not having access to the platform in the future!”
- Russell H.
“You've put together a hell of a tool here. And very reasonably priced for what it is. Nice job!”
- Matt W.

Your latest update with fast parameters helped me to go one step ahead! It is very helpful to have such examples from your team (i.e faster or slower trades) because you know the system better than us! Keep up the good work! Congrats.”
- Christos A., Senior Portfolio Manager
