Backtesting
Psychology
Ce que ça veut dire
Running a strategy over historical data to see how it would have performed, before risking real money on it. It is the lab test for a trading idea.
Exemple
You test "buy the 50/200 SMA crossover on AAPL, 2010-2024" and find 28 trades, a 46% win rate, and +0.4R per trade. The strategy is marginally profitable -- worth paper-trading next.
L'erreur des débutants
Beginners over-tune settings until the backtest looks perfect, then lose live. A perfectly fit backtest is overfit -- it predicts the past, not the future. Test out-of-sample data too.
