Strategy

Shorts AR at 5x when a candle wicks above a recent swing high and closes back below it, on the 1-hour chart. Closes when price reaches the swing low on the other side or at +3.75% profit, with the stop just above the sweep wick, never more than 3% 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.

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.
