Strategy Tester
A successful strategy requires time to prove itself.
While a strategy may look flawless on paper, real-world results depend on actual trades, where factors like emotions come into play.
To minimize the impact of emotions, a solid trading plan should be as mechanical as possible.
That’s what I aim to showcase here. On this page, I document every trade made using a specific strategy so you can see its performance in action.
My goal is to reach at least 100 trades, providing a meaningful sample size for evaluating the win rate.
For the first 10-20 trades, there will be some fine-tuning of the strategy, which could impact the win rate or potential losses. However, over the course of 100 trades, those effects should balance out.
