Testing checklist before live use
First, check the platform version and the broker’s symbol name. Then, review the settings and save a copy of your chosen inputs. Use historical tests to compare trade activity, costs and drawdown across several market periods. For example, include both quiet sessions and periods with sharp price moves.
Next, run a demo test with the same broker you plan to use. Compare the demo trades with your test assumptions, because spreads and execution can affect results. Finally, review the journal for errors and keep a record of any setting changes. Historical results do not guarantee future performance.
