A trading strategy simply defines your entry and exit triggers, whereas a complete trading system wraps that strategy inside strict risk management, position sizing rules, psychology protocols, and performance evaluation.
When trading with a prop firm, having a robust system is vital because even the best entry strategy will fail if your risk management cannot handle tight daily loss limits or drawdown rules. Performance tracking helps you refine your edge and stay consistent under pressure.
