Track record

Every trade, logged in public

Each signal is a full trade: an entry at the next open and an exit by rule. Below is the live record, the backtest the rules were chosen on, and why we retired our first engine.

How the rules were chosen

57 stocks and ETFs and 16 cryptocurrencies, 2017–2026. Rules were picked on data up to 2022, then tested once on 2023–now, and on 54 tickers the research never used. Every rule is compared with random entries that use the same exits.

Pullback in uptrend

Buy a sharp dip (RSI(2) under 10) when price is above its 200-day average; sell on the first close above the 5-day average, or after 10 days.

Cumulative P&L at $100 per trade, after estimated costs (0.15% per side on crypto, 0.03% on stocks). Entries at the next daily open; when a bar touches the stop and another level, the stop counts first. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading and may not reflect the impact of fees, slippage, liquidity or market factors. No representation is made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.

Why we retired our first engine

Our first version sent 20 classic indicator signals: RSI levels, MACD and moving-average crosses, candlestick patterns. When we tested it the same way on 9 years of data (31,485 trades), it lost 0.08% per trade after costs and did worse than random entries. So we replaced it with the two rules above, the only ones that held up out of sample.
