1. come up with a trading strategy
2. formalize it as code
3. integrate it with a broker API or write an autotrading plugin for MT4 or something
4. let it run
5. lose all the money in your demo account
6. go back to 1.

walk forward optimization is the most rigorous way to guarantee you're not curve fitting, but I've never seen a "backtesting" site or platform implement it. I had to build it into my backtesting system manually.
