⚠ Expect 10–20 losing trades in a row. 56% of trades are full losses, 29% end near breakeven, 16% are the winners that carry the curve.
Days of silence, then bursts. The bot trades on roughly 1 in 5 days - and then usually several trades at once.
Strategy

Patience. Precision. Asymmetry.

Detect Setup

The bot monitors BTC 24/7 across multiple timeframes, waiting for market conditions that historically precede strong moves.

Confirm Entry

Once a setup is detected, independent filters validate direction, timing, and strength. All must agree - most setups are rejected.

Execute & Protect

Every trade is fully managed from entry to exit. Risk is defined before entry, take-profits scale out in stages - up to 20R.

Risk scales with the pool

Every trade risks 0.8% of current pool equity - not a fixed dollar amount. Every winning trade grows the pool, and the next position automatically sizes up with it; after losses or withdrawals it sizes down. Over hundreds of trades this compounding effect is the core growth driver - and it is what allows deposits and withdrawals at any time without changing the strategy's risk profile.

$10k $20k $30k $40k $50k 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 Fixed $ sizing · $12,731 Pool-scaled sizing · $42,450

Same 1,062 backtest trades, $3,000 start, 2022 – 08/2026, net of fees. Fixed sizing risks the same dollar amount on every trade; pool-scaled sizing risks 0.8% of whatever the pool is worth at the time. Compounding amplifies both gains and the impact of drawdowns. Live results will differ.

Reality of the System

28 trades without a single winner - stopped out or scratched at breakeven. Six weeks of bleeding. Most systems collapse here - this one recovered and pushed to new all-time highs. That's what asymmetric risk-reward looks like in practice.

Is this for you?

Not every investor fits every strategy. Be honest with yourself.

Good fit

  • You understand leverage and perpetual futures
  • You can sit through a 20–30% drawdown without withdrawing at the bottom
  • You think in weeks and months, not days
  • You want systematic, rule-based execution
  • You're okay with months that end flat, and long strings of small losses

Not a fit

  • You expect steady, low-volatility returns
  • You can't afford to lose what you deposit
  • You need guaranteed, predictable returns every month
  • You expect guaranteed profits
  • You're looking for passive ETF-style exposure

FAQ

Common questions

The pool account runs at 50x leverage on Lighter, but leverage is not risk. Actual risk per trade is 0.8% of pool equity, defined by the stop-loss distance - with at most 3 concurrent positions, total open risk never exceeds 2.4% of the pool. A typical position is around 2x the pool's equity in notional - at 50x that ties up ~4% of equity as margin per position.
Yes. 10% of your profit, charged by the Lighter pool contract when you withdraw - on the gain between what you deposited and what you take out. No profit, no fee. There is no management fee and no deposit or withdrawal fee from our side.
Yes, anytime, no lock-up. You hold pool shares; withdrawing burns them at the current share price. Open positions keep running - your withdrawal comes out of the pool's free collateral, which is most of it (three open positions tie up roughly 12% of equity as margin). Two things to know: your performance fee is settled at withdrawal, and Lighter requires the operator to hold at least 5% of the pool - when that limit is reached, new deposits are rejected until the operator adds capital.
In the 5-year backtest the worst drawdown was 20.1% (2022) and the longest losing streak 21 trades (2023). Live trading adds slippage, unfilled limit orders and regime changes - assume a live drawdown can exceed the backtest, 30% is a realistic planning number. Exchange outages, API failures or smart-contract vulnerabilities are additional risks that cannot be backtested.
Stop-losses are placed on-exchange, so positions are protected even if the bot temporarily disconnects. The system monitors connectivity and auto-reconnects on recovery, syncing state automatically.

Trading cryptocurrency perpetual futures involves substantial risk of loss. Past backtest performance does not guarantee future results. The strategy may experience significant drawdowns - 20.1% in the worst backtest year, and live drawdowns can be larger. Only deposit funds you can afford to lose. GGez Trade is not a registered investment advisor. All trades are executed by automated software and carry inherent technical risks including but not limited to exchange outages, API failures, and smart contract vulnerabilities. Backtest results (01/2022 – 08/2026) include Lighter Premium-tier trading fees (0.4 bps maker / 2.8 bps taker), assume limit entries are filled when the price touches the limit, use 0.8% of equity risk per trade with each year starting at the same capital, and do not account for slippage, latency or unfilled orders. Live performance will differ from backtests. Live metrics on this page, once available, are computed on the pool's share price (NAV) so that deposits and withdrawals do not distort them. By depositing into any vault or pool, you acknowledge and accept these risks.
