💡 Described strategy
Analysed 24 Aug 2026, 08:12 PM IST
★½☆☆☆ 1.5 / 5

Why 1.5/5? (stars grade the EDGE — per-trade expectancy, consistency, drawdown — not the headline return)

  • Roughly ZERO per-trade edge (+0.01R) — real costs eat whatever is there
  • Only 35% of trades win — the rare big winners must keep showing up
  • 5 of 9 tested years were negative (2018, 2019, 2022, 2025) — the edge is regime-dependent
  • Max drawdown -84% on the ₹2L portfolio — the compounded return came with deep pain along the way

Verdict

Auto-backtested. AI-decoded: Intraday 5-min breakout strategy on F&O stocks: find lowest-volume bearish candle in uptrend, buy above high (1:3 target), SL below low. Ran on 159 large/mid-caps, real costs. 46,731 trades, win 35%, payoff 1.86, expectancy +0.01R/trade (avg -0.18%/trade).

This is essentially breakeven. Regime-dependent — positive in only 33% of years.

Mechanically decoded from the transcript and scored from the metrics. Flagged for human review; a hand-vetted verdict can override it.
