Spectrum Trend Pro EA presents mixed statistical evidence with a score of 60/100. While the core edge exists, several risk factors require attention before committing significant capital. Over 3.4 years and 320 trades, it has generated a 309.3% total return (51.1% CAGR) with a maximum drawdown of 22.8%. The Calmar ratio of 2.24 indicates strong risk-adjusted returns — every unit of drawdown risk has been well compensated. Monte Carlo simulation results: 100% of 1,000 randomized trade sequences remained profitable, indicating low sensitivity to trade ordering.
Recommendation: LOW VOLATILITY: Standard optimization schedule acceptable
Re-optimize parameters every 4y 0mo to maintain edge quality. Statistical analysis suggests the market regime this strategy exploits has a half-life of approximately 409 days before parameters begin to decay.

Deep Dive: What The Tests Mean
▲ TOP 3 STRENGTHS
✓ Cliff Detection100
Checks for suspicious sudden drops in the equity curve that could indicate data errors or catastrophic events.
✓ Edge Consistency100
How stable the win rate and profitability are across rolling windows. Inconsistent edges are harder to trade with confidence.
✓ Expected Shortfall100
Average loss in the worst 5% of scenarios (CVaR). Critical for understanding tail risk — what happens in worst cases.

Monte Carlo Assessment
100% of simulated paths remained profitable, indicating strong robustness to trade sequencing.
The 95th percentile drawdown (34.5%) is 1.5x the historical maximum. Under adverse conditions, drawdowns could roughly double.
Monte Carlo Drawdown Context: The 95th–99th percentile simulated drawdown range is 35–42%, compared to the historical 22.8%. This range is commonly used as a stress-test reference when evaluating strategy robustness.
