Key Terms

TermDefinition
WR (Win Rate)% of closed trades that were profitable (hit TP or closed in profit)
PF (Profit Factor)Gross wins / Gross losses. PF > 1.0 = profitable. PF > 1.5 = strong edge.
R:R (Risk:Reward)Distance to take-profit / distance to stop-loss. R:R of 2.0 means TP is 2x further than SL.
Expectancy(WR × Avg Win) − ((1−WR) × Avg Loss). Expected PnL per trade. Must be positive for profitability.
ConfidenceStrategy-specific score 0.0−1.0 generated by each system based on its internal signal strength assessment. NOT calibrated (0.8 confidence ≠ 80% probability).
BT (Backtest)Performance on historical data. Subject to look-ahead bias, curve-fitting, and survivorship bias.
FWD (Forward Test)Performance on live market data after the strategy was deployed. The gold standard for validation.
DecayBT WR − FWD WR. Positive = strategy performs worse live (likely overfitted). Negative = improved or BT data missing.
HealthStrategy status: healthy = performing within expected parameters. degrading = recent drawdown or declining WR. watch = under observation. None = status not yet classified.
AgreementNumber of independent system groups flagging the same symbol+direction. Higher = more consensus. Capped at system group level (deduplicated).
Trust TierPROVEN (1.0x weight) → SANDBOX (0.25x, default for new systems) → PROBATION (0.10−0.15x) → DEMOTED (0.25x, asset-specific failures)

System Lifecycle

StageCriteriaTrust Weight
New / SANDBOXDefault for all new systems. <50 closed trades.0.25x
Under Review10-50 closed trades. Performance monitored.0.25x
PROVEN50+ closed trades, WR ≥ 50%, PF ≥ 1.0, documented forward results.0.8−1.0x
PROBATIONDocumented poor performance: broken risk mgmt, consistently losing, or system errors.0.10−0.15x
DEMOTEDStrategy works on some assets but fails on others (asset-specific demotion).0.25x
KilledAuto-kill when criteria met (see below). 19 of 75 systems are grade F.0x (disabled)

Kill Criteria (Mercury AI Recommended)

A system/strategy should be automatically KILLED (disabled) when ANY of these are met:
FWD WR < 40% after ≥30 closed trades — consistently below random chance
FWD PF < 0.8 after ≥30 closed trades — losing more than winning
BT→FWD Decay > 25% — strategy is severely overfitted to historical data
Max Drawdown > 30% on $100 position sizing — unacceptable risk
No trades generated in 14+ days — dormant/broken system
3 consecutive losing months — persistent underperformance

⚠️ Current status: Kill mechanism is NOT yet implemented. 19/75 grade-F systems remain active, generating noise and diluting signal quality.

1. Executive Summary — Crypto Portfolio

Avg Loss

Honest Assessment: The overall crypto portfolio is unprofitable with a 48.0% win rate and 1.33 profit factor. Expectancy is +0.32% per trade — meaning every trade loses on average. The system generates too many low-quality signals from unproven strategies. However, a subset of proven strategies shows strong positive results (see Section 4).

Key Problem: Avg loss (1.80%) exceeds avg win (2.61%), AND win rate is below 50%. A profitable system needs EITHER a high WR with reasonable R:R, OR a low WR with high R:R. We have neither in aggregate.

3b. Strategy Logic Reference — What Each Strategy Actually Does

For an external reviewer to evaluate signal quality, they need to know the actual entry/exit rules, not just names. Strategies marked with "No documented rules" are a transparency gap.

Transparency gap: Many strategies lack documented entry/exit rules. This makes external review impossible for those strategies. A reviewer can only evaluate strategies where the logic is explicitly documented. Undocumented strategies should be treated as untestable black boxes.

4. Backtest vs Forward-Test Performance

Decay = BT WR − FWD WR. Positive decay means strategy performs worse live than in backtest (overfitting). Negative means it improved.

What to look for: Strategies with low decay AND sufficient forward trades (≥10) are the most trustworthy. High decay (>15%) suggests curve-fitting. Negative decay with few trades may be luck.

6. Optimal Pick Selection — Simulated Results

If we only traded the top-scoring picks, what would performance look like? All PnL values are unrealized (positions still open).

Scoring Formula

score = (0.25 × confidence + 0.20 × min(R:R/5, 1) + 0.25 × fwd_wr + 0.15 × min(fwd_pf/3, 1) + 0.10 × min(fwd_trades/50, 1) + 0.05 × min(agreement/3, 1)) × health_multiplier health_multiplier: healthy=1.0, degrading=0.7, other=0.5

Important Caveats

All PnL values above are UNREALIZED — these positions are still open and can reverse at any time. An unrealized total PnL is NOT a valid measure of strategy quality. These snapshots change every few minutes.

Portfolio overlap: The four portfolios above are NOT independent — they share many of the same picks (same high-scoring picks appear in multiple selection methods). Do not treat them as independent validation.

No benchmark: Without comparing to a simple BTC buy-and-hold or a 60/40 crypto index over the same period, it is impossible to know if these picks add alpha or are just riding market beta.

Scoring Formula Limitations

Reviewers should note:
Confidence is uncalibrated — a 0.8 confidence score does NOT mean 80%% probability of profit. Each system generates its own scale.
Agreement caps at 3 — the formula uses min(agreement/3, 1), so 3-system and 23-system agreement score identically. This may underweight strong consensus.
Forward WR dominates at 25%% weight, but most strategies have 0 forward trades, making this component 0 for the majority of picks.
No historical backtest of the formula itself — we have not validated whether this scoring formula would have selected winners in the past.
Recommendation for reviewers: Compare portfolios A-D. Which filtering criteria produces the best risk-adjusted returns? If vetted picks (C) outperform raw score (A), the system should raise minimum forward-trade thresholds. If agreement picks (D) outperform, cross-system consensus is more valuable than individual strategy metrics.

8. Questions for AI / Human Reviewers

Q1: Signal Volume

We generate 100-1000+ crypto signals per day across 75 systems. Is this creating too much noise? Should we enforce a hard cap (e.g., max 20 picks/day) based on score ranking?

Q2: Entry Quality

Our avg loss (-19.88%) exceeds avg win (+17.78%). Should we tighten stop-losses, widen take-profits, or implement trailing stops to improve the win/loss ratio?

Q3: Strategy Pruning

Many strategies have <5 forward trades. Should we require a minimum forward trade count (e.g., 20) before allowing a strategy to generate live signals?

Q4: Backtest Decay

Several strategies show 30-50% decay from backtest to forward test. At what decay threshold should we auto-demote or disable a strategy?

Q5: Optimal Filtering

Based on the simulated portfolios in Section 6, which selection criteria (score, vetted, agreement) produces the best risk-adjusted outcome? What filter thresholds would you recommend?

Q6: Position Sizing

Currently all picks are equal-weighted. Should we size positions based on confidence score, R:R ratio, system trust tier, or forward validation strength?

Q7: What's Actually Working?

Looking at the leaderboard (Section 7) and system grades (Section 2), which 3-5 strategies or systems show genuine edge that we should double down on?

Top 5 Strategies to Scale

2funding_momentumExploits funding rate trends — unique edge not in standard TAExtend to more perpetual pairs
3crypto_keltner_compression_expansionVolatility squeeze breakout — well-understood mechanicsAdd multi-timeframe confirmation
4crypto_vwap_deviation_reversion_volMean reversion to VWAP with volume filter — institutional flow signalTighten entry window, reduce max hold time
5crypto_kalman_trend_residual_reversionKalman filter trend + residual reversion — adaptive to regime changesValidate with walk-forward optimization

Recommended Filtering Thresholds

Minimum requirements before a strategy generates live signals:
• ≥30 forward trades (current: many strategies have <5)
• FWD WR ≥ 55% (current: no minimum enforced)
• FWD PF ≥ 1.2 (current: no minimum enforced)
• BT→FWD Decay ≤ 10% (current: some strategies show 30-50% decay)

Impact: This would dramatically reduce signal noise by disabling unproven strategies while preserving strategies with genuine edge.

Scoring Formula Restructure

CURRENT: 0.25×conf + 0.20×R:R + 0.25×fwd_wr + 0.15×fwd_pf + 0.10×trades + 0.05×agreement PROPOSED: 0.30×fwd_wr + 0.25×fwd_pf + 0.20×conf + 0.15×agreement + 0.10×trust_tier Key changes: - FWD WR increased 0.25→0.30 (most predictive metric) - R:R removed (redundant with PF, can be gamed by wide targets) - Trust tier added at 0.10 (rewards battle-tested systems) - Agreement increased 0.05→0.15 (cross-system consensus is strong signal)

Priority Action Items

Immediate (this week):
1. Implement hard gates in scanner: zero score if fwd_trades<30, fwd_wr<55%, fwd_pf<1.2, decay>15%
2. Cap daily signals at 20 via top-score selection (cuts ~90% noise)
3. Implement kill criteria for grade-F systems (see Section 0)
4. Add trailing stop at 70% R:R target — tighten SL to min(ATR×0.5×R:R, entry×0.005)

Short-term (2 weeks):
5. Switch to Grok normalized scoring (compare Portfolio G vs E vs A-D)
6. Implement tiered position sizing: position_size = min(0.05, (score×R:R) / sum_scores)
7. Add BTC buy-and-hold benchmark comparison to all portfolio sims
8. Adjust all PnL metrics -0.40% round-trip to account for exchange fees

Medium-term (1 month):
9. Walk-forward optimization for top 5 strategies
10. Add realized PnL tracking (currently all PnL is unrealized)
11. Build correlation check: prune_correlated_picks to avoid concentrated bets
12. Build a proper backtest of the scoring formula itself on historical picks

Confirmed Red Flags (3/3 AI Reviewers Agree)


~86%% of active picks come from Grade F systems (Codex finding) — the system is feeding mostly unvalidated noise into portfolios.
Over-reliance on unvetted ML/genetic systems — high decay rates indicate overfitting. Most should be killed or sandboxed.
Missing fees in PnL calculation — all metrics should subtract -0.40%% round-trip (0.10%% taker × 2 sides + ~0.05%% slippage × 2).
No correlation checks — multiple picks on the same asset/direction from different systems create concentrated risk.
Duplicate stacking — multiple systems bet same symbol+direction, treated as independent alpha when it's concentrated risk.
Revival_Mutated_* strategies should be blocked from live capital entirely (paper-only until validated).
Confidence is double-counted with FWD WR (they correlate, weighting both inflates scores).
Data integrity: closed ≠ wins + losses in some systems — phantom/unresolved trades exist.

Projected impact of implementing filters + scoring: +15-25%% expectancy boost within 30 days.

Codex (GPT-5.3) Additional Recommendations

2-Stage Scoring (replaces single formula):
Stage 1 — Hard Pass/Fail Gate:
• fwd_trades ≥ 50 (strictest threshold across all reviewers)
• fwd_pf_net ≥ 1.15 (after fees)
• net expectancy > 0
• health = healthy
• NOT Revival_Mutated_*
• Grade A/B only (C on strict probation)

Stage 2 — Rank by uncertainty-adjusted net expectancy (not raw WR):
• Use expectancy = (WR × avg_win) − ((1−WR) × avg_loss) − round_trip_cost
• Penalize low sample size with uncertainty factor: expectancy × (1 − 1/sqrt(trades))
• One position per symbol+direction (no duplicate stacking)

Best portfolio method: D (High Agreement) + deduplication + vetting gate
Kill criteria: Probation at rolling-20 PF < 0.9; Kill at rolling-50 PF < 0.95 or decay > 15pp
