lump sum +133% vs 12-buy DCA at +10.1% on LIT is brutal. spreading entries ate almost all of the gains on this one
classic lump sum bias in the data. DCA only loses when the trend never dies, and lit did +74.1% in one stretch so a single entry did all the work
+74% in one stretch is exactly why the 4 bull vs 4 bear split says WAIT. one move does all the work then nothing for months
HOLD with a 50% win rate on the signals seems generous to me. The system caught one big move, that is not a base rate I would trust with another 15k.
3.24 with vol ratio 1.34x on up days and still below the 50d. low conviction hold is the right call, this can chop sideways for months
