・The initial trading rule is explained in “Started coin toss trading that had always interested me.”
・For the latest trading rules, please check the most recent article.
・This trading started from a rule of buying on the coin toss front side and selling on the back, but at a certain point it started deciding trades by the color of the Heikin-Ashi. Still, since it continues from the initial idea, the name coin toss remains unchanged.

Rule changes starting next week!

We backtested the current Heikin-Ashi trading method. Here are the performance graphs from 2014 to the present when entering at 12:30.

The trend shows a rising positive balance.

And the performance by entry time came out as follows.

Entries before 16:00 seem to have an edge.

Also, we optimized take profit and stop loss when entering at 12:30.

As a result, levels around 60/50, 70/60, 70/70 (take/stop in pips) are effective, so starting this week we will try take profit 60 pips and stop loss 50 pips settings.

Even with the backtest results, the method itself isn’t bad, but some improvements are needed.
