Start with market conditions, not return promises
A strategy must fit not only the trading pair, but also the current market regime: trend, range, volatility, and liquidity. A strategy can be narrow by design; the point is to run it where its logic makes sense.
In BadRock, start with one practical question: what behavior is this strategy trying to use? Momentum, mean reversion, grid averaging, breakout, scalping, or calm trend following.
Check risk before launch
Before live launch, review not only PnL, but also drawdown, number of trades, stability, and behavior during weak historical periods.
If a strategy has too few trades, the report may be statistically weak. In that case, collect more data or test a more active timeframe.
Move to Terminal only after a clear report
The workflow is simple: strategy, test, report, preset, Terminal. This reduces random launches and makes the decision traceable.
BadRock does not replace trader discipline. It helps test and control the process, while launch decisions should rely on clear parameters and risk limits.
