Prove It in Paper First
You can run a candidate through paper testing and judge it on evidence instead of hope.
Lesson objective
Be able to run a paper session that produces usable evidence about a rule, and list the specific ways live execution will differ.
Preview
Paper trading is not practice clicking — it is how a rule earns the right to be trusted. This lesson covers what to record, how long to observe, and what a paper record has to show before anything is considered ready.

Risk reminder
Paper trading only. No real money, no broker connection, no trade recommendations. Never treat a profitable paper run as clearance to go live at full size — scale up slowly, if at all.
Education only. This lesson is not financial advice, a trade signal, or a promise of results. Test in paper first, size every idea by what you can afford to lose, and remember that you control your own broker account and your own decisions.
