Risk disclosure
Backtest Q2'25–Q1'26 plus live Q2'26 at the stated presets. Past performance, simulated or live, does not guarantee future results. Futures and CFD trading involves substantial risk of loss; prop-firm accounts add breach rules (daily/EOD drawdown) that can terminate an account regardless of long-term edge. Size accordingly.
How Reject works
Reject enters on rejection wicks: a candle that pushes through a key level and immediately closes back inside, signaling a failed breakout. The strategy fades the rejection in the opposite direction, targeting the next liquidity zone for exit.
MGC 50K and 100K are excluded from this strategy. The minimum viable size produces stops too wide for the tighter daily-loss limits on those account tiers. Reject MGC is only available on the 150K Futures Prop account.
The 150K MGC variant has a 62.8%/y blow rate — well above the 15% SAFE threshold. It is published in the sizing table for transparency but should be operated with full awareness of the risk profile. Pass:Blow ratio is 0.9:1, meaning roughly equal odds of pass and blow over the 3-year simulation horizon. The compensation: BEST/y reaches $36,337 (P90).
XAU Forex Swing is the safer Reject variant: blow 0.5%/y, viability 99.9%, Pass:Blow 68:1, BEST/y $22,588. The Forex Swing daily-loss buffer absorbs Reject's volatility much better than tight futures daily limits. Most Reject users should start here.
How these numbers were calculated
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 TradingView after purchase — numbers match 1:1.
DD%, SL%, Pass:Blow ratio and percentile breakdowns are computed from the same trade list using industry-standard methodology. Reproducible in Excel or Python.
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.
