Welcome
G’day, Howdy, Guten Tag, Ni Hao, Вітаю, Hallo, Konnichiwa, Chào and welcome to session #12 of the Forex System Development Workshop.
Live and Interactive
Don’t be a Shy Sally or a Bashful Barry, ask questions,
take your time.
Review of Session #11
Build a set of processes that keep you in sync with the market and allow you to trade what’s in front of
you.
Review of Session #11
A rule is something like “Buy when the 20 period moving average crosses the 50 period”.
In contrast, an example of a process would be “the set of actions you take to examine the market for a low-risk idea based on your objectives, principles
and market model”.
Review of Session #11
A discretionary trading system is not a simply a “set of rules”. It encompasses objectives, principles, a market model, processes and risk management
guidelines.
