Zero fires in 20 days of live trading. RANGE-REV already covered the same edge.
What we learned
Zero fires in twenty days of live trading, having looked reasonable in replay. A strategy that never fires is not a losing strategy, it is an untested one, and the distinction matters when reading this list.
It was cut for redundancy as much as for silence — RANGE-REV already covered the same edge with a different band definition. Two strategies fading the same extension is one strategy with an argument about parameters.
