# v11 Indicator Analysis - December 15, 2025
|
|
|
|
## Executive Summary
|
|
|
|
**Overall Performance:** 7 trades, 57.1% win rate, -$1.80 total P&L
|
|
**Sample Size:** TOO SMALL for definitive conclusions (need 20+ trades)
|
|
**Data Quality:** Average quality score 88.6 (good filtering)
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## 🚨 CRITICAL FINDINGS - IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED
|
|
|
|
### 1. **LONG TRADES ARE LOSING MONEY** (-$2.22 total, 40% WR)
|
|
- **Problem:** LONGs at top of range (80-100%) are mixed results
|
|
- **Worst Loser:** Quality 75, RSI 73.5 (overbought), Position 94.4% → **-$17.09 loss**
|
|
- **Pattern:** Buying overbought conditions at range tops = disaster
|
|
|
|
### 2. **SHORT TRADES ARE PERFECT** (+$0.42 total, 100% WR)
|
|
- **2 trades, 2 wins** (Quality 85-105, ADX 22-34)
|
|
- **Both:** RSI 38-44 (bearish zone), good momentum
|
|
|
|
### 3. **QUALITY 95-99 FAILED** (-$4.72 on 1 trade)
|
|
- **Single failure:** Q95, LONG at 63.5% position, RSI 59.5 → stopped out
|
|
- **Contradicts:** Q100+ had 100% WR (+$24.01)
|
|
- **Issue:** Quality 95 threshold may be too low, or 95-99 tier unlucky
|
|
|
|
### 4. **RSI SWEET SPOT FOR LONGS: 60-70** (100% WR, +$26.97)
|
|
- **Avoid:** RSI >70 (overbought) → -$17.09
|
|
- **Avoid:** RSI 50-60 (weak bullish) → -$12.10
|
|
- **Trade:** RSI 60-70 (strong but not overbought) → +$26.97

### Quality Score Tiers
|
|
|
|
| Quality Tier | Trades | Win Rate | Total P&L | Avg P&L |
|
|
|--------------|--------|----------|-----------|---------|
|
|
| **100+** | 2 | **100.0%** | **+$24.01** | +$12.01 |
|
|
| **95-99** | 1 | **0.0%** | -$4.72 | -$4.72 |

|
|
|
|
**Findings:**
|
|
- ✅ Quality 100+ = perfect edge (2/2 wins)
|
|
- ✅ Quality 85-89 = solid (2/2 wins)
|
|
- ❌ Quality 95-99 = single failure (1/1 loss) - **SAMPLE SIZE TOO SMALL**
|
|
- ❌ Quality <85 = disaster (0/2 wins)
|
|
|
|
**Action:** Need 5+ more trades in 95-99 tier to validate if real problem or outlier.

|
|
|
| ADX Tier | Trades | Avg ADX | Win Rate | Total P&L |
|
|
|----------|--------|---------|----------|-----------|
|
|
| **30+ Very Strong** | 1 | 34.2 | **100.0%** | +$0.38 |
|
|
| **20-25 Moderate** | 4 | 23.6 | **50.0%** | +$1.85 |
|
|
| **15-20 Weak** | 2 | 16.2 | **50.0%** | -$4.04 |

### Price Position Analysis (LONGs Only)
|
|
|
|
| Price Zone | Trades | Avg Pos | Win Rate | Total P&L |
|
|
|------------|--------|---------|----------|-----------|
|
|
| **80-100 Top** | 3 | 89.5% | **66.7%** | **+$9.88** |
|
|
| **60-80 Upper** | 1 | 63.5% | **0.0%** | -$4.72 |
|
|
| **40-60 Middle** | 1 | 54.2% | **0.0%** | -$7.38 |
|
|
|
|
**CRITICAL FINDING:**
|
|
- ✅ LONGs at TOP of range (80-100%) = **66.7% WR, +$9.88**
|
|
- ❌ LONGs at MIDDLE/UPPER (40-80%) = **0% WR, -$12.10**
|
|
|
|
**Explanation:** This seems counterintuitive but:
|
|
1. **Top of range (80-100%):** Strong momentum breakouts, continuation plays
|
|
2. **Middle/upper (40-80%):** Weak momentum, often rejects or chops
|
|
|
|
**BUT WARNING:** Top winner (Q100, +$23.63) skews this. Need more data.

## 📊 OPTIMIZATION RECOMMENDATIONS
|
|
|
|
### Immediate Filters (High Confidence)
|
|
|
|
#### 1. **BLOCK OVERBOUGHT LONGs** (RSI >70)
|
|
```typescript
|
|
if (direction === 'long' && rsi > 70) {
|
|
score -= 50 // Major penalty
|
|
blockReason = 'OVERBOUGHT_RSI_LONG'
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
**Impact:** Would have blocked -$17.09 loss (worst trade)
|
|
|
|
#### 2. **REQUIRE RSI 60-70 FOR LONGs**
|
|
```typescript
|
|
if (direction === 'long' && (rsi < 60 || rsi > 70)) {
|
|
score -= 30 // Significant penalty
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
**Impact:** Would have blocked 3 losers (-$29.19 total)
|
|
|
|
#### 3. **KEEP SHORT ENTRY LOGIC AS-IS**
|
|
- SHORTs are 100% WR (2/2) with current filters
|
|
- RSI 30-50 range is working
|
|
- Don't change what's not broken
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
### Medium Confidence Filters (Need More Data)
|
|
|
|
#### 4. **CONSIDER BLOCKING LOW ADX (<20)**
|
|
- ADX 15-20 had 50% WR (-$4.04)
|
|
- But only 2 trades - need 5+ more
|
|
- **Wait for more data**
|
|
|
|
#### 5. **VALIDATE QUALITY 95-99 TIER**
|
|
- Single failure at Q95 (-$4.72)
|
|
- Could be outlier
|
|
- Need 5+ trades in this tier before adjusting threshold
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
### Research Questions (Collect More Data)
|
|
|
|
1. **Price Position Paradox:** Why do LONGs at top (80-100%) win more than middle (40-80%)?
|
|
- Hypothesis: Top = breakout momentum, middle = chop/rejection
|
|
- Need 10+ more trades to validate
|
|
|
|
2. **Quality 95-99 Anomaly:** Is Q95-99 actually worse than Q85-89?
|
|
- Current: Q85-89 = 100% WR, Q95-99 = 0% WR
|
|
- Need 5+ more trades at Q95-99
|
|
|
|
3. **Volume Impact:** Vol 1.30-1.42 on winners, 0.95-1.41 on losers
|
|
- Insufficient sample to determine threshold
|
|
- Need 20+ trades
|
|

## Data Quality Assessment
|
|
|
|
### Sample Size Status
|
|
- **Total Trades:** 7 (❌ Need 20+ minimum)
|
|
- **LONG Trades:** 5 (⚠️ Need 10+ minimum)
|
|
- **SHORT Trades:** 2 (❌ Need 10+ minimum)
|
|
- **Quality Tiers:** 1-2 per tier (❌ Need 5+ per tier)
|
|
- **ADX Tiers:** 1-4 per tier (⚠️ Borderline)
|
|
- **RSI Zones:** 1-2 per zone (❌ Need 5+ per zone)
|
|
|
|
**Confidence Level:** LOW - Most patterns need more data for validation
|
|
|
|
**Exception:** RSI >70 LONG disaster is strong signal (single worst trade, clear overbought condition)
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Action Plan
|
|
|
|
### Phase 1: Immediate (Today)
|
|
1. ✅ **Add RSI >70 penalty for LONGs** (-50 points)
|
|
2. ✅ **Add RSI <60 penalty for LONGs** (-30 points)
|
|
3. 📊 **Monitor next 10-15 trades** to validate pattern
|
|
|
|
### Phase 2: Data Collection (Next 7 Days)
|
|
1. Collect 15+ more v11 trades (target: 20+ total)
|
|
2. Validate RSI 60-70 sweet spot holds
|
|
3. Check if quality 95-99 failure was outlier
|
|
4. Analyze price position paradox with more data
|
|
|
|
### Phase 3: Refinement (After 20+ Trades)
|
|
1. Optimize ADX thresholds if pattern emerges
|
|
2. Adjust quality score tiers based on larger sample
|
|
3. Consider volume multiplier if correlation found
|
|
4. Review position sizing based on RSI zones

## Conclusion
|
|
|
|
**v11 has potential but needs RSI filter refinement for LONGs.**
|
|
|
|
**Clear Signal:** RSI >70 for LONGs = disaster zone (-$17.09 worst trade)
|
|
|
|
**Winning Pattern:** RSI 60-70 for LONGs = 100% WR (+$26.97)
|
|
|
|
**SHORTs:** Working perfectly (2/2 wins), don't change
|
|
|
|
**Next Steps:**
|
|
1. Add RSI 60-70 requirement for LONGs
|
|
2. Block RSI >70 LONGs entirely
|
|
3. Collect 15+ more trades to validate patterns
|
|
4. Re-analyze after reaching 20+ trade sample size
