Why 3.5/5? (stars grade the EDGE — per-trade expectancy, consistency, drawdown — not the headline return)
- ✓ A real but modest per-trade edge: +0.22R across 8,754 trades
- ✓ Convex payoff 3.4 — winners far bigger than losers
- ✕ Only 31% of trades win — the rare big winners must keep showing up
- ✕ 3 of 9 tested years were negative (2018, 2025, 2026) — the edge is regime-dependent
- ✕ Max drawdown -30% on the ₹2L portfolio — the compounded return came with deep pain along the way

Verdict
Auto-backtested. AI-decoded: Three-EMA trend alignment with dip-buy into 5-EMA, exit below 9-EMA. Ran on 159 large/mid-caps, real costs. 8,754 trades, win 31%, payoff 3.36, expectancy +0.22R/trade (avg +1.15%/trade).
This is a real edge. The payoff is convex (winners run well past the average loser). Reasonably consistent (67% of years positive).
Mechanically decoded from the transcript and scored from the metrics. Flagged for human review; a hand-vetted verdict can override it.
