A trading strategy provides structured rules for making decisions rather than guaranteeing a particular outcome.
Strategies should be evaluated in the market environments for which they were designed.
Trend-following approaches attempt to participate in established directional movement.
Breakout approaches focus on price moving beyond established levels or structures while accounting for false breakouts.
Range approaches focus on repeated price behavior between support and resistance areas.
Swing and short-term approaches differ in holding period, decision frequency, and exposure to short-term market behavior.
