Backtest on real historical prices from Jun 13, 2021 to Oct 3, 2026: signals on completed bars, filled at the next bar's open, net of typical spread, commission and overnight financing. Past and backtested results are not a reliable indicator of future results. (Binance)
Methodology
- Long on a close above the highest high of the previous 20 bars, short on a close below the lowest low.
- Exit when price breaks the opposite 10-bar channel.
- Protective stop: exit if price moves 2.5× ATR(14) against the entry; no re-entry in the same direction until the signal flips.
- Trades both directions (long and short).
- Position size targets 25% annualised volatility (risk level 5/5), capped at 2:1 leverage per instrument. Costs: live bid/ask spread, commission and overnight financing.
