How these numbers were calculated

Layer 1 · Verifiable

Trade counts, win rates, profit factors and drawdown come directly from the TradingView Strategy Tester for the presets shown. Live Q2’26 figures are live-tracked and modeled results. Both reproduce 1:1.

Layer 2 · Computed

DD%, pace and percentile breakdowns are computed from the same trade list using standard methodology — reproducible in Excel or Python.

Layer 3 · Modeled

Time-to-payout, Net $/yr ranges and modeled blow rate come from a 1,500-path Monte Carlo over a 3-year horizon. Block bootstrap (5-day blocks) preserves streak autocorrelation.

Risk disclosure

150K-Balanced's blow rate is 4.51% per year. Empirical maximum drawdown on the backtest (Apr 2025 — Mar 2026) was $3,696 — 82.1% of the hard DD budget; live-quarter max DD $2,098. The lower-quartile (P25) outcome is $28.0k/yr. Trade-WR 61.3% ≈ 61 of 100 trades profitable. Day-WR 59.5%.
