What you'll learn

A repeatable pipeline that turns a raw trading idea into a monitored, risk-limited, retire-able strategy — the value is the pipeline, not any single strategy. You move one running example, an ES breakout-retest, through five gated stages: intake and kill criteria, hypothesis and data, specification and validation, forward testing and risk, live monitoring and retirement, and finally a review-board defense and a reconciled production-readiness packet. Every number in the course ties to one canonical stat sheet, and the discipline you leave with is killing bad ideas cheaply and defending good ones with out-of-sample evidence.
