Risk management

Define what would make a paper idea wrong before testing it.

What to notice

A useful simulation records an entry, invalidation reference, timeframe and reason for taking or skipping the setup.

The context that matters

Paper trading has no monetary loss, but realistic assumptions and honest records matter if you want to learn.

Common mistake

Changing a paper exit rule after seeing the result and treating the revised result as original.

Try it on a chart

Write the invalidation and no-trade conditions before revealing future candles.
