Trading Philosophy
His philosophy is based on three fundamental pillars:
- Rigorous Validation — No strategy should be traded live without going through a validation process that includes statistical analysis, Monte Carlo simulations, and Walk Forward testing.
- Risk Management — Capital is a trader's most valuable resource. Protecting it is more important than maximizing profits.
- Systematic Diversification — A portfolio of uncorrelated strategies is more robust than depending on a single strategy.
