“Lessons from Backtesting” with Gary B.  Gary is a Systematic Trader and Investor with a technology background that has allowed him to build the necessary technology tools and processes to evaluate his trading ideas.  From starting out, as most of us do, as a discretionary trader, Gary decided that there was a much better path to success.  This experience has led Gary into recently fully automating his short term trading strategies with better consistency and good success.

If you are a (or an aspiring) Systematic Rules-based trader or investor, or interested in hearing more about this subject and Gary’s experiences in backtesting and trading automation, you won’t want to miss this presentation.  He’ll cover not only the good stuff, but the challenges he’s faced and how he’s been able to deal with them along the way.

Some of the topics Gary will be specifically addressing in his presentation :

– evaluating a strategy

– risk and probability

– ways to improve returns and reduce draw down

– dealing with historical data

– active vs. passive strategies

– the emotional side of trading

– challenges with actual investing

If you are experienced or even just starting out, join us on Dec 3rd for a great educational session and discussion to follow, and remember to bring all of your questions.  We’ll do our best to get all of your questions answered!
