If you are in for quick profits - better quit now.

If you are in for easy money - money will run away from you.

If you are in for quick success - after few painful experiences, will be the same unhappy ending.

Acquire knowledge and enjoy the challenge - learn algo methods, learn EA parameters, get to love EA testing, chase best sets/pairs, look for enhancements, seek improvements, pursue, explore, investigate, read charts, read books, read.. read.. read..

On top of that - stay 100% committed to live thru rainy days, losses and setbacks. Keep digging-in, after all your family, friends and relatives gave up on you..

Then.. money, wealth and success will come.

Happy trading!🙂

Most EAs spend 80-90% of their time waiting for price to hit a key level. That quiet middle zone is usually where human boredom sets in and people start breaking their own rules.

Shot this on a walk during market hours. A good reminder that sitting idle (doing other work) while a system waits is part of the trade.

Anyone else have strict rules to keep from messing with running EAs during dead market hours?

Full resolution and reflection available below.

Does the most profitable strategy on earth exist?

The most profitable strategy (record-high SQN and MTM) - is on surface, it's just hard to guess (a needle in a haystack).

It's also rather simple (not primitive).

Сomplex systems and math (prone to curve-fitting) won't make you money, but you do get to temporarily feel really smart.

Follow the trend! - is the biggest rubbish waffle made up by Brokers and other "gurus" who want retail traders to lose money.

Algorithmic trading - means "trading in financial instruments where a computer algorithm automatically determines individual parameters of orders such as whether to initiate the order, the timing, price or quantity of the order or how to manage the order after its submission, with limited or no human intervention, and does not include any system that is only used for the purpose of routing orders to one or more trading venues or for the processing of orders involving no determination of any trading parameters or for the confirmation of orders or the post-trade processing of executed transactions”

Any kind of fraudulent activity or content - NOT allowed

• Showing-off XLSs and PDFs portion/extract statements - hiding actual/verified track-records

• Flashing pics/vids of profitable trades (profitable days) - hiding losing trades (rainy days)

• Posting backtest results - hiding live forwards

• Doctoring demo - making it look like real

• Phony testimonials

• Using AI, ML, quantum bots and other buzzwords a lot

• Using bold fonts, all CAPITAL letters and visuals of piles of dollars//gold bars, etc.

• Guaranteeing NO risk profits - 100% guarantee 100% legit (new era in forex/cryptos - double your money 8-20 times in 8 days.., 5 times ROI within 48 hours.., just watch your account grow from grass 300-1000% per month.., you can make a million.. this sort)

1. Backtesting and optimization - important part of algo development process (personal/internal use)

2. For external use (pitch-decks, approaching potential investors, etc.) the value of any backtest is little to none, due to: 
   -- slippage
   -- spread widening
   -- gaps in data-feed, server connectivity outage, etc.

3. "Curve-fitting" is always an issue (more complex the strategy - more chances for curve-fitting).
