What is a trading system?

A trader typically spends several hours a day in front of a screen waiting for favorable entry opportunities, e.g., on the DAX, EURUSD, DOW JONES, etc. Thanks to the enormous time invested in trading and by exclusively taking advantage of good entry opportunities, the trader generally achieves a performance that makes traditional, conservative investment models seem unattractive. A trading system is computer software for completing stock market transactions. After analyzing prices, the purchase and sale of securities or other financial assets is carried out automatically. The trading system thus replaces the trader and the daily, painstaking, hours-long search for the optimal entry point.
