GBPUSD Trading using signals

I recently completed development of a proprietary trading signal generator.
I am currently testing out the system with real money. I will update this thread with my results.

I am interested to hear from anyone with experience testing trading systems. How should I approach the testing? Are there any formal methodologies?

Kind Regards

There are no formal methodologies with regard to testing trading systems. The only thing that needs to be done is to apply the values. This will give you a clear understanding as to where the market is heading. Anyway, I hope that he will be giving us the details of the trading signal generator that he has developed.

I will suggest the following.

  1. functional testing; if it actually does what it is suppose to do
  2. non-functional testing; performance, load, and stress testing.
  3. test from 1 pm to 5 pm GMT when the NEW YORK and LONDON sessions are open.
  4. system integration testing
  5. acceptance testing; get as many people as you can who have used signals to give you feedback on its functionality.
