Are you making these algo backtesting mistakes?

[@BenceGSzemes]

Great content as always, thank you very much! :)) You inspired me to try to write my own algo and this is what I'm trying to do in the last days/weeks... Let me please have some amateur questions: #1. How many percentages do you calculate with as commission and slippage for regular US stocks? #2. Is there an easy way to work with historical index constituents? Thank you for your help in advance!

Glad to hear that! 1) I use interactive Brokers commission structure as I trade with them 2) I think there's a free S&P 500 list somewhere but I don't know of others, this is typically a premium feature

Would you be able to provide some tips on how to maximize the use of available capital from an algo with low exposure?

[@nadamson14]

Great videos as always btw 👍

[@CriticalTrading]

Thanks! I would focus on different timeframes, i.e. combining daily systems with intraday

How about NOT INCLUDING SLIPPIAGE in your back testing.? I think is a very critical mistake.
