Weekend Update

Importance of testing trading strategies. First; I need a strategy! I am still just trading on trendlines and volume indicators. Is it time to add more rigor to my setups? Perhaps this it still the time for learning and experimenting; or perhaps it is time to add some TOS "strategies" to my trading, and see how those work out for me.
If I did have a home-grown strategy that I felt strongly about; or perhaps a modification of an existing strategy; having it expressed in code, and having the ability to back-test it against historical market data is invaluable. This is standard QA! Right in line with my core competencies.
