Read these limits before choosing the return.
- A backtest is a simulation of the past, not a promise of future returns.
- The backtest runs the same process and risk controls as live trading, with fees, slippage and funding; real fills can still differ.
- Returns since activation come from the exchange's paper account (fake funds); its fills can differ from the real market and it has run for a short time.
- This page shows test results and the previous close's position shares only: no live positions, no entry or exit signals, no investment advice.
