054: From trading ideas to robust strategies - lessons and highlights from episodes 21-40

When I was preparing for the previous podcast episode on system trading through the Brexit, I had to review some of the past podcast episodes so that I could include some background content for the guests, and as I was going through some of those past episodes I realized that there was so much great information in them that I had already forgotten about.

I even found some concepts or ideas that didn’t really catch my interest because it wasn't appropriate to my trading at the time but it’s now more relevant to me personally, so I thought it might be time to do another review of some of the past episodes as a reminder and to perhaps gain or reinforce past insights.

Last year, we did a podcast episode where we reviewed episodes 1- 20. That was episode 30 if you’d like to go back and hear that.

In this episode we'll review lessons and highlights from episodes 21-40. Some of the topics we’ll be discussing are:

• How to never run out of trading ideas,
• The importance of creativity and a simple technique to increasing our creativity,
• How to manage data mining and avoid overfitting,
• A number of approaches to building robust trading strategies,
• How to bet bigger with a smaller overall risk,
• Plus much more!
