You know, trading strategies are the backbone of how any trader approaches the market. Whether you're into day trading or future trading, a good strategy gives you structure and a framework to make informed decisions.

Lately, I've been seeing the importance of community and shared knowledge around trading come up a lot.

The first issue would be that other people will copy that strategy and take away profit from the market. In case our strategy is time sensitive and uses market inefficiencies to make a profit, then more traders trying to do the same trade will reduce the inefficiency. Financial markets are very dynamic and a trading strategy is not going to be profitable for ever. So, it’s good to
