Silver Path

A 55-lesson intermediate path for turning a trading idea into a written, measurable and testable method.

Give every trading decision a testable structure.

In brief — Learn to state what you need to see, how much you will risk and when the idea becomes invalid before entering. Then use evidence to measure and improve the process.
