    Default Difference between a method and system.

    What's the difference between a trading method and system? Or are they the same

    One way of looking at it is that a method is the techniques used to determine entries and exits. A system could be seen as being more comprehensive in terms of also including money management, position sizing, etc.

    Depends upon your use of terminology.
    To me a system refers to the mechanics and is the part that can be programmed
    through your PC, while a method refers to your overall style of trading.

    I tend to view trading as defined by strategy and system.
    My strategy, affectionately known as RC ( rat cunning) is too complex to be
    programmed in todo as it requires judgement calls based on the prevailing market conditions.
