Trend-Following Backtest

2-year simulation on a notional USD 35,000 starting balance using the model’s 50d/200d MA crossover + RSI filter. The model goes long when price is above a rising 50d MA with RSI 40-75, and goes flat on a death cross or RSI above 82. Hypothetical, before fees and slippage.

DCA vs Lump Sum (DOT)

Hypothetical result of a notional USD 35,000 placed one year ago under different timing schedules. Simulation only, not a recommendation.

Levels the system watches

Reference levels used by the trend model to classify DOT. They describe how the model reads the chart, not what anyone should do.

Support (recent swing low) USD 0.8812
Resistance (recent swing high) USD 1.29
Trend model’s invalidation level (ATR-based) USD 0.7802 (-12.5% from current price)
ATR (14) USD 0.0558 (6.26%/day)
Price location vs trend (model label) Pullback

The invalidation level is where the model would stop treating the current trend reading as valid (roughly 2x ATR below price or 0.5x ATR below the recent swing low, whichever is lower). It is a model parameter, not a stop-loss recommendation.

      1. the 1.02 reclaim is the level for sure, but volume under 0.90 looks thin on the chart. stage 4 downtrends usually end with a violent squeeze, wouldnt chase a short here

        1. thin volume cuts both ways tho, only takes one bounce off 0.89 to squeeze everyone shorting under the 200d. watching whether RSI tags oversold before any 1.02 retest

    1. same here, bought the parachain auction hype in 2021 and just watched it bleed since. at least the golden cross gives us one bullish factor out of nine lol

  1. the backtest section is wild. strategy down 41% while buy and hold is down 80%? and the vol ratio at 0.35 screams distribution

    1. 51% win rate over 47 trades, basically coin flips after fees lol. that oct 22 sell at 1.11 saved the whole simulation tho
