Technical analyst traders are trader who make decisions to buy and sell stocks when there is a
signal given from the market. These traders identify trends and makes predictions based on
patterns in market data. However, after analyzing the losses occurred in the trading activity
using Exponential Moving Average and Count Back Line strategy, the losses incurred are
much higher than the Jakarta Composite Index’s losses as the benchmark. Thus, using solely
sell signal to sell an asset is not limiting the risk faced by technical analyst traders.
Value at Risk (VaR) is a popular risk measurement tool that is extensively used to estimate
and manage risk. It gives investors an indication of the level of risk they take with a certain
investment. Value at Risk can help investors to decide whether the possible gain is worth the
potential maximum loss. This final project intends to use Value at Risk as a tool for risk
assessment for trading activities based on Exponential Moving Average and Count Back Line
strategy. This project also aims to inform the level of risk investors take with a certain
investment by calculating the maximum potential loss that occur every day.
This final project uses trading activities performed from 1 October to 31 December 2018 based
on Exponential Moving Average and Count Back Line strategy as the technical indicator and
only limited to stocks listed in IDX30 index. Number of stocks traded using the trading
strategy were 27 stocks with 41 transactions in total. Among 41 transactions performed, there
were eight trading activities when stocks were traded beyond its Value at Risk limit. The stocks
