We're showing you the bootstrap distribution, the slippage curve, the ablation test, and the regime stress test. If a system can't survive being properly interrogated, you have no business trading it. You really have no business teaching it.
The flat first 1,000 trades? That's the strategy surviving 2020-2023 chop. Most retail traders quit here. The ones who didn't caught the 2024-2025 expansion. +150.8% then +211.0%.
19.3% pass rate. Industry average sits around 7%. The math doesn't lie.
Asia-session triggers print PF 3.22. Tuesdays print 1.36. We teach you the regimes.
We modeled fills worse than reality. Even with 2-tick adverse slippage, the system still nets +$33,820.
Remove the VWAP filter and Sharpe collapses from 1.03 → 0.46. Every filter we teach has earned its place.
A curve-fit strategy works at one set of parameters and dies everywhere else. Ours stays green across the entire SL × R:R grid. That's not luck. That's edge.
Block bootstrap, 4 different block sizes. The distribution is centered around profitability. Statistically validated, not lucky.
Edge has expanded over time, not decayed. The strategy is more profitable today than it was in 2020.
Wide-stop trades print $518. Tight stops average $54. We teach you to size your stops to the setup, not the other way around.
Pessimistic fills nets $448K. Optimistic nets $513K. The number you saw above is the conservative one.
A single-bar delay costs $137,021. Three bars and it's a losing system. We teach you the exact trigger.
5× scaling stays profitable. The strategy can support a real-sized account, not just a $1K demo.
Mean shuffle DD: -50.3%. Actual: -38.8%.
Even removing 40% randomly: +$260K mean. Forgiving system.
Stable: PF 1.19. Transition: PF 0.92. The off-switch matters.
If you've ever wondered why your favorite "trading educator" only ever shows one zoomed-in equity curve, it's because this is what real validation looks like, and most of them have nothing to show.
