Day 2 of building my own crypto trading bot.

I tested about 29,000 indicator combinations on real price history. Almost all of them lost once real Coinbase fees were counted.

One pattern survived: buy when the whole market dips, once momentum starts turning up.

• 14 trades → 126 trades in walk-forward testing
• A smarter exit doubled the test result: +8.4% → +16.3% over 3 test periods

These are backtests, not real profits. Next step: paper trading only. Not financial advice.
