Advanced Forex Course

Deepen your edge with portfolio risk control, execution analysis, and systematic performance review.

1) Portfolio risk and correlation

Manage exposure across pairs that move together. Correlation can magnify risk if positions are aligned in the same direction.

  • Limit total exposure per currency.
  • Track correlation clusters (USD, JPY, EUR).

2) Execution quality and slippage

Measure real execution vs expected price. Optimize trade timing around liquidity and major news.

Slippage log

Track average slippage per pair and session.

Execution window

Prefer higher liquidity windows for tighter fills.

3) System testing and validation

Backtest and forward test your strategy with realistic assumptions to avoid overfitting.

  • Use transaction costs in tests.
  • Validate on unseen data windows.

4) Long-term performance review

Evaluate expectancy, drawdowns, and consistency across market regimes to refine your edge.

  • Review monthly and quarterly metrics.
  • Document strategy changes and results.
