Backtest Hypothesis
A simple breakout strategy based on the 23:45 ET candle could be tested for its potential to predict a short-term bullish trend. If the breakout candle closes above the previous consolidation range and volume spikes, it may serve as a trigger for a long position. The hypothesis would look to target a move to $0.00000043 (61.8% retracement) with a stop-loss below $0.00000041. This strategy aligns with the observed breakout pattern and the RSI/MACD signals, making it a low-risk, high-reward candidate for further backtesting.
