Strategy

Trades AR both ways at 5x, on the 1-hour chart: long when a candle wicks below a recent swing low and closes back above it, short when a candle wicks above a recent swing high and closes back below it. Closes when price reaches the swing on the other side or at +3.75% profit, with the stop just beyond the sweep wick, never more than 4% away. Works best in range-bound markets with clear swing levels, where breakouts tend to fail.

The balance's return in each calendar month (UTC), each month building on the last, so a year's total is its months compounded. Dashed cells are months the test window only partly covers. Read from the published balance curve, so a month boundary can be off by a day or two.

Spot trades are longs. A trade that ended within half a cent of zero is flat: it counts in the trades and the win rate, never as a win. Profit factor is what the winners made divided by what the losers lost.
