Jeff Swanson from EasyLanguageMastery discusses how to avoid curve fitting your trading strategies using the “independent testing” technique, including:

  • The things traders do that cause curvefitting,
  • Is curvefitting a trading strategy really that bad?
  • Independent testing and why you should use it when developing trading strategies,
  • How to do independent testing of filters and using optimization to judge filter consistency,
  • Testing combinations of filters and why you should look to remove filters instead of adding more,
  • Plus, types of filters to test, where to get trading ideas, how long to test a trading idea, when to switch strategies off, combining filters, tweaking a strategy and much more!
