ICP at 2.19 down 86% from 15.56 and the target 1 is literally 2.00 which is BELOW the entry. how is that a target lmao
ADX of 9.5 means theres basically no trend at all. calling it SELL when momentum is flat seems wrong, this is just sideways bleed
been holding since 400+ and every analysis like this makes me die a little inside. -86% drawdown is not a dip its agrave
^ the target 1 below entry price is actually the stop loss at 2.00. read the table again, stop is -8.4% not target
backtest strategy -52.8% with 36% win rate over 52 trades. this thing printed money for nobody
