📊 Fixed Lots = same $100 risk every trade (1% of $10K). Profit = +286R × $100 = $38,600 final balance. Simple, predictable.
📈 Compounded = risk adjusts to current balance after every trade. Same 562 trades → $153K final balance. Higher returns, but drawdowns feel bigger. See Monte Carlo simulation below.

Why is Copy win rate lower? Copy Trading uses a trailing stop loss. When price hits TP1 then reverses, VIP scores +1R (you saw the peak) but Copy scores 0R (trailing SL closed at entry). This lowers the win rate but the positive expectancy of +0.467R/trade proves the edge is real — and requires zero screen time.
Monte Carlo Simulation
500 RANDOM PATHS. ZERO LOST MONEY.
We shuffled the order of all 562 GBPJPY trades 500 times with compounding (1% of current balance per trade). Every single path ended profitable. The compound math is order-independent — what varies is the drawdown journey.

Data & Methodology
HOW WE BACKTESTED GBPJPY.
Backtest Engine
Custom-built Python backtester, designed to match our TradingView indicator logic exactly. Every signal in this backtest would have been a real signal in live trading.
Data Source
HistData.com (1-minute bars, bid prices). January 2021 through April 2026. 5.3 years of 1-minute candle data.
Execution
Optimized SL buffer applied per instrument. No slippage (limit orders at optimal entry points). No commission deducted. Results in R multiples, independent of lot size.
Scoring
VIP and Copy scoring computed independently on every trade. Same-bar ambiguities (TP1+SL on same candle) scored as 0R. Copy can never exceed VIP.
