As an amateur early-30s-something investor with shaky knowledge of my financial strategies but firm goals for my future, I have found Aikido to be exactly what I was looking for in a finance application--a tool that enabled me to make decisions that were right for me and that I felt good about.

What is a 'good' investment strategy?
A good investment strategy should have a clearly defined thesis. For example: “This year, I will be implementing the Top Quality and High Momentum strategy. I will be investing $5000 in the strategy. These stocks have high return on equity and price momentum. I will create a 20 stock portfolio using the investment strategy and invest an additional $500 each month. This strategy has averaged a return of 16.10% over the past 20 years.“
What are some different investment strategies?
The best long term investment strategies utilize investing factors such as value, dividend, quality, size, or volatility. Factor investing involves selecting stocks based on the characteristics which best explain returns. The benefits of factor investing include risk management, diversification and outperformance. Some sample investment strategies are Superior and Steady Stocks, The Stable Dividend, Microcap Momentum.
What is a backtest?
Backtesting is a method for seeing how well an algorithmic trading strategy strategy would have done historically. It is the process of testing a trading strategy over prior time periods.
