backtest shows +74% but its 4 trades with a 50% win rate. two good months in aug and sept carried the whole thing. still, price above the 200d at 2.42 is the only reason im not touching the exit button
+63% then +46% back to back is literally how trend following works, you eat the -13% and -15% losers to catch those. 4 trades is thin evidence tho ill give you that
Target 1 at 3.00 with price sitting at 2.98. So the plan is wait for a 0.5% move. Inspiring stuff.
backtest log is 2 wins 2 losses and the wins were both august chop. im not sure that says deploy 25% of a portfolio, says trade half size and wait
fair but +106% on the year against btc at 19.8% is hard to argue with. the trend engine caught both of those runs for a reason
Entry at 2.98 is literally sitting on support with RSI at 39. Either it holds and you look smart or it breaks and your stop at 2.66 eats almost 11%. Tight setup, respect the plan.
the 2 tranche + 25% cash buffer part is doing more work than the signal tbh. thats what saved you on the -15.7% october trade
