Technical analysis: reading charts — Advanced

The honest part of technical analysis: measuring whether your method really works, or whether you are mistaking luck for skill.

What this level covers

• Backtesting a signal without fooling yourself: sample, period, bias
• Overfitting: the trap of a system that looks perfect on past data
• Mathematical expectancy, win rate and reward-to-risk ratio
• Telling a significant result apart from a lucky one
• Tracking the decay of a system and knowing when to shut it down

Who it's for: you have a method and want to know whether it holds up.

Risk warning. A favourable backtest guarantees nothing about future results. Trading carries a high risk of capital loss. This is strictly educational content: it is not investment advice, not a personal recommendation, and not an inducement to invest. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
