Topic: Systematic Trading In this presentation, Robert Carver explains why he thinks that Systematic Trading is preferable to the discretionary / 'gut feel' / intuitive alternative. He will then cover three errors typically made by traders when designing and using systems - overfitting, overbetting (risking too much capital) and over trading (trading too often).
