Getting Ready to Go Live from Auto Paper Trading

A few weeks ago, I started paper trading a few automated stock trading strategies to see how they looked in simulated real world market conditions.  (These are the same strategies that we offer FREE Strategy Scans each day on our site).

Paper Trading a strategy is a great way to forward test after you have back tested a strategy.  Forward testing is a great way to see how a strategy might perform in live market conditions and to make sure that the strategy is “doing what it’s expected” in live market conditions.

In the video I recorded the other day, I mentioned that I would wait for a little pullback in order to get into the market with my live production account, because I don’t like “buying highs”.  Well, the strategies are up EVEN more today and there has been no sign of a pullback.  I’m getting some serious FOMO over here! 🙂

Here’s what the paper profits look like for both strategies today, you can compare to what was recorded in the video.  I probably shouldn’t be surprised as this is typically a very seasonally strong time of the year heading into Christmas and the Santa Claus rally.  I might have to wait for a bit of a “December dump” to get into this market just after the holidays.

By the way, for those that want the code for these two (2) strategies and want the step by step on how to do all of this semi and full automation stuff for both paper testing and live, you’ll want to grab yourself a copy of the Trading & Investing Automation for AmiBroker course.  You can get $50.00 off for a limited time using coupon code:  abcourses
