Why 3.5/5? (stars grade the EDGE — per-trade expectancy, consistency, drawdown — not the headline return)
- ✓ A real but modest per-trade edge: +0.28R across 6,433 trades
- ✓ Convex payoff 3.2 — winners far bigger than losers
- ✕ Only 33% 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 -20% on the ₹2L portfolio — the compounded return came with deep pain along the way

Verdict
Auto-backtested. AI-decoded: EMA 9/21 crossover strategy with VWAP breakout and RSI 30-70 thresholds as secondary filters. Ran on 159 large/mid-caps, real costs. 6,433 trades, win 33%, payoff 3.25, expectancy +0.28R/trade (avg +1.51%/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.
