Few Facts from Trading Babypips

Your trading system should attempt to accomplish 2 goals:

-Be able to identify a trend as early as possible
-Be able to find ways to avoid whipsaws (confirm your trend)

If it is profitable, then you trade your system live on a demo account for at least 2 months. This will help you get an idea of how you would trade your system when the market is moving. It is a lot different trading live than manually backtesting.

Once you’ve demo traded your system for at least 2 months and you are still profitable, you are then ready to trade your system live with real money. However, you must always remember to stick to your rules no matter what!

 
There are 6 steps to developing your system:

Find your timeframe
Find indicators to help you identify trends early
Find indicators to help you avoid whipsaws and confirm your trend
Define your risk
Define your entry and exit
Write your trading system rules down and ALWAYS stick to those rules!

There are 3 phases to testing your system:

Back test- go back and time and move your chart forward one candle at a time. Trade your system according to its rules and record your trades to see if it ends up being profitable.If it is profitable, then you trade your system live on a demo account for at least 2 months. This will help you get an idea of how you would trade your system when the market is moving. It is a lot different trading live than manually back testing.
Once you’ve demo traded your system for at least 2 months and you are still profitable, you are then ready to trade your system live with real money. However, you must always remember to stick to your rules no matter what!
 
YOU MUST ALWAYS STICK TO YOUR TRADING SYSTEM RULES!
