Hook

Multi-leg Sweep

Hook waits for liquidity to be taken on one side of a recent swing, then waits for a multi-leg confirmation that price is rejecting back through the swept level. Three legs of confirmation before any entry. Selective by design — trade count stays low but each entry is high-conviction.

Account sizing

Maximum position size per account that satisfies three filters: empirical drawdown ≤ hard DD limit, single SL impact within daily limit, Monte Carlo blow rate ≤ 15%/y. Two percentiles show median (P50) and best-case (P90) outcomes over a 1,500-path simulation × 3-year horizon. Net $/y is annualized payouts after profit split (90% Futures Prop, 85% Forex Prop).

Sizing matched to Futures Prop EOD Trailing close-of-day rules. Static EOD accounts inherit identical sizing safely; Trailing intraday accounts should drop one tier (e.g. 100K trailing intraday → use 50K preset). Monte Carlo v6: 1,500 paths × 3-year horizon, block bootstrap of daily P&L with 5-day blocks, 25% dropout for variance robustness. P10/P50/P90 are 10th/50th/90th percentile across paths. Amber-highlighted Blow/y values exceed the 10% caution threshold.

How Hook works

Hook operates on the liquidity-sweep + reversal premise: institutional flow takes out the previous swing low/high (running stops), then prints rejection structure as buyers/sellers absorb the move. The strategy waits for two additional confirmation legs before entering on the third — filtering out continuation sweeps that just keep going.

Selectivity is the point. Hook produces ~25–40 trades per year on MNQ and ~30 on NAS — an order of magnitude less than Open (114/yr on MGC). The trade-off: high win rate, high profit factor, and very low blow rate (0% on NAS, 0.7%/yr on 100K MNQ).

Exits use a fixed initial stop at the failed sweep wick + a profit target derived from the swing's measured move. EOD GUARD closes any open position 5 minutes before close to avoid overnight exposure on futures. Average holding period: ~3 hours on 5m timeframe.

Sizing on MNQ is conservative (1–2 ct on 50K–150K accounts) because Hook's setups occasionally cluster on consolidation breakouts — the smaller size protects against day-of-week stacking. NAS sizing (6 lot on Forex Prop) reflects the wider Forex Prop daily-loss buffer.

Methodology

How these numbers were calculated

Layer 1 · Verifiable

Trade counts, win rates, profit factors, drawdown values come directly from TradingView Strategy Tester for the baseline preset. Verify by running the strategy in your own TV after purchase — numbers match 1:1.

Layer 2 · Computed

DD%, SL%, Pass:Blow ratio and percentile breakdowns are computed from the same trade list using industry-standard methodology. Reproducible in Excel or Python.

Layer 3 · Modeled

Time-to-payout, Pay/y, Net $/y, Blow rate, and Viability come from a 1,500-path Monte Carlo v6 simulation over a 3-year horizon. Block bootstrap (5-day blocks) preserves serial autocorrelation of trade streaks.

Reproducibility: Raw trade lists for every strategy × instrument and the Monte Carlo model source data are available on request for audit. Email support@puravidaedge.com.
