As you build a system, you will still need to answer these questions:
- What do I buy? What instruments? How much leverage?
- How will I test the system to determine the expectation and profitability?
- Will I be able to follow the rules and stick with my system even through losing periods? Use a system with a low winning percentage with large winners that overcome many small losses?
For more information on the parts of a Trend Following System, visit www.LearnTrendFollowing.com as these questions are answered in the systems listed on this site:

- When do I get out of a winning position? How do I let winners run?
