How to optimize SL and TP analyzing your orders history

 

Hi!


i'm building my automatic trading system.... i would like to know if there is a proven/solid method to analyze your past orders performance and find the optimal SL and TP levels in order to improve the strategy results. Of course without falling in the over fitting problem...

Any suggestion, or link to some readings, is appreciated ;)


Thanks!
