One-time — gone on refresh. Copy it and paste as a YouTube comment.
Why 3.0/5? (stars grade the EDGE — per-trade expectancy, consistency, drawdown — not the headline return)
- ✓ A real but modest per-trade edge: +0.17R across 630 trades
- ✕ Max drawdown -43% on the ₹2L portfolio — the compounded return came with deep pain along the way

Verdict
Auto-backtested. AI-decoded: Gold reversal/profit-taking strategy based on Fibonacci retracements (38%, 61%), psychological round levels, and mean reversion to rejection zones after strong directional moves. Ran on 159 large/mid-caps, real costs. 630 trades, win 51%, payoff 1.33, expectancy +0.17R/trade (avg +1.46%/trade).
This is a real edge. The payoff ratio is thin. Reasonably consistent (78% of years positive).
Mechanically decoded from the transcript and scored from the metrics. Flagged for human review; a hand-vetted verdict can override it.
