Sharpe Ratio -1.80 ❌
Sortino Ratio -0.87 ❌
⚠️ Observations & Risks
Profit Factor > 1 → profitable but thin edge.
Negative Sharpe & Sortino → risk-adjusted performance is poor (high volatility, low consistency).
Low Win Rate (42%) → depends heavily on a few big winners.
No Stop Loss / Take Profit → exposes account to streaks of losses.
Works better in trending markets, fails in choppy/sideways conditions.
✅ Caution: The system makes money on paper, but the risk profile is weak. Use strict money management and additional filters (higher timeframe trend or volume confirmation) before considering it live.
