Why does every strategy look profitable when you backtest it?

Because there's no emotion involved

True

Because once you see it you can't unsee it, but when the market is moving you can't see shit 😂

Hindsight and survivorship bias :D

It’s like a textbook… it’s easy to understand.

Your only seeing the wins, usually avoiding when your system loses

As you back test also forward test

because in hindsight is easy

All the strategies are profitable iykyk

Because you deceive yourself, in a live market you won't even have your SL that tight, basically if you are back testing just do what you would in a live market, don't deceive yourself and you will see the results

Because you are not under any psychological pressure

Because players are not liquidating you.

Hindsight bias..

Because even in real life, they work before you are wicked out.

clean loss tbh, way better than forcing a bad trade after

Emotion is not attached.

Same with me

Emotions

Backtesting and journaling is nothing but waste f time

If I have time machine, I can do the same.

hahahah ya , fear 😂

Lies This is not about backtesting

Hindsight is easy to explain. That's why

You can skip directly to the next day in back testing but not in a live environment

Because execution exists...exist(ed)

Because it has happened already.... Giving out history is easy but trying to predict the misery is difficult.

You have no fear of losing money.

Its the waiting of Price Action that creats doubt - also, market conditions change over time so adapting is required

Because it’s actually profitable but emotions won’t let you 😂😂😂

scrolling through charts isnt backtesting

This is so unrealistic

Because your psychological level is balanced no emotional feelings of FOMO you are seeing a clear chart unlike live trade which is opposite

Because, you test trading strategy in backtesting, not trading psychology.

Backtesting sweet nau
