Hello Traders,

Hope you are doing well during this hectic holiday season.  If you are not trading well and wonder what you can do to improve your trading, the first thing I always recommend is doing some serious backtesting.

Doing this will not guarantee your success of course, but it will put you way ahead in terms of knowing how a system trades and getting a feel for what to expect over a long period of time. This can give you the confidence to take trades, stay in trades and see if a trading system has positive expectancy or not.

I realize that a products like Forex Tester 2 are not cheap and in some cases, that money really is better spent on learning to education (courses, seminars, etc).  But if you are at the point in your career where you ready to get serious and really find out what a trading methodology is like and not rely on the SWAG (Scientific Wild Ass Guess) method of trading, then you are reading this post at exactly the right time.

The good folks at Forex Tester usually do a sale during the holidays and this year they are offering an excellent 25% discount.  However, I want to help you out as much as possible, so if you purchase through my affiliate link, you will be able to pick up a copy of Forex Tester 2 for $135 instead of the normal $199 price.

That is a 32% discount off the normal price and an outstanding deal for a great piece of software.  Of course, there is a 30 day money back guarantee, but this sale only lasts until January 1, 2012 so if you have ever considered getting this important piece of forex trading software, now is the best time.

I don’t just promote it, I actually use it!  If you do end up purchasing the software, here are some great free resources that I have developed over the years to help people backtest:

• My FREE backtesting course – Learn the basics of backtesting and develop a plan to test ideas to see if they have a chance of being profitable
• My review of the software
• Some actual backtesting results from a system that I have been testing/trading

Hope you are having a great holiday season and as always, let me know how your trading/testing is going!!

Cheers,
Hugh
