Results of backtested bot logic for the last 30 days. 5/15 to 6/15. The bottom result on each screenshot represents today’s wins. 100$ sim win was 99.20$ actual and 200$ sim win was 190.80$ actual win.

Suppose starting with 10k account on 5/15/2026 : Ending balance = 10,000 + 6,939 = $16,939
Monthly return = +69.39%

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

June 15 - 2 trades - 8 lot - 100%. 99.20$ and 190.80$

I remember the good life I once lived. Every decision onwards is a step towards that life. However distant it may seem.

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

It’s actually nice to feel the rock bottom. 0$ to my name and unable to fulfill my minimal desires. Internalize and remember this feeling of mediocrity.

After analyzing bot backtest on 1 minute interval confidence is back to high. *Priority to fund 100k account.

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

Now back testing with 1 minute interval. 1 minute interval much more accurately simulates trade action.

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

And important notice: bot backtest was using 5 minute interval data which is very inaccurate.

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

I’m starting to have second thoughts about bot. Not the logic but just that I shouldn’t 100% depend on it. Perhaps a portion of trades should be manual execution since bot trading window is minimal.

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

FTMO challenge starting over. And purchasing a challenge account every 4 days until momentum is locked.

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

Challenge failed. The logic overall is sound. Bot just needs to catch some momentum. So better to open a new challenge every few days and have challenges trailing each other. Rather than waiting failed to open new challenge. Mainly because there’s a 4 day min trading days.

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

Need to analyze bot because losses might be due to adjusted interval and step size that was changed after passing challenge.

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

MFF account is breached. And the last time using MFF because of account rules.

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

It’s better to stick to 1 prop firm rather than running bot on 2 platforms especially if we are using the same strategy.

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

FTMO account has now lost 6 trades running. Account almost busted. We didn’t see this pattern in back test : 100% loss on consecutive days.

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

Ftmo account has lost 4 trades straight. Account would have breached if position size wasn’t reduced to 3. Tempted to make more code changes but will let bot keep running.

[kai3ep @kai3ep]

MFF. Bot lost -1000 this morning on its first trade. Managed to recover back 500 manually trading. Now sitting at -500 Loss
