Backtest Hypothesis
The “Bullish Engulfing 3-Day Hold” strategy tested on LRCUSDT from 2022 to 2025 struggled to deliver positive returns, especially in the current market environment. While the 15-minute chart showed a bullish engulfing pattern during the session, this signal alone may not be sufficient for a robust trade setup. The strategy's performance could be improved by incorporating trend confirmation filters, stop-loss levels, and adaptive holding periods. Given the recent volatility and momentum buildup, traders should remain cautious and avoid relying solely on single pattern setups without additional filters.
