How to Backtest Your Forex Strategy - 3 Methods
What is the Secret of Successful Trading?
The Consistent Pursuit of DS1
The thing that makes me money in trading is when I "Objectively Follow my Trading Plan".
I understand that I can't catch all the moves or all the signals but my objective is to catch THE VALID SIGNALS & ONLY the Valid Signals.
My Deathbed Advice "5:1 Reward to Risk Ratio".
Yo, banana boy!

Re: How to Backtest Your Forex Strategy - 3 Methods
@Immy, I hope you can help with this.
I started doing backtesting on GBP-USD to train myself in doing the right things. I use the MT4 FX Blue tester.
Is it possible to put in "move SL to BE at 1R" in the software? As I cannot find that setting. Or is there a easy to do work around if that's not possible?
