STEEMUSDT * BasicMode
Positive window result: a return of +27.55% across 119,931 executed trades. Max drawdown reached -49.22%, so the equity path was significant - investors would have sat through a deep drawdown before the recovery.

TL;DR
The BasicMode strategy on STEEMUSDT returned +27.55% over 2022-01-01 to 2022-12-31, turning 10,000.00 USDT into 12,755.34 USDT.
It executed 119,931 closed trades with a 100.0% win rate (closed only), hitting a max drawdown of -49.22%. [!] This 100.0% win rate is a structural artifact, not edge - closed-trade WR excludes open positions by definition, and 871 orders remain open carrying -2,144.54 USDT of unrealized loss. The losing trades are sitting unrealised in the open buy-ladder, not absent.
It outperformed Buy & Hold by +103.25% on the same window.

| TSL (Trailing Stop) | 0 | 0.0% | Trailing stop locked in profit during a trend. |
Verdict
For STEEMUSDT, the strategy’s profit factor of inf (no losing trades) indicates gross winners materially exceeded gross losers in this window, exits are TP-dominant (100.0%), so most profit comes from hitting take-profit targets, fees consumed 22.2% of gross profit (notable but acceptable).Chunking & Headings Guide
This document is structured for deterministic RAG ingestion. Each top-level section is wrapped in HTML-comment chunk markers and follows a stable heading convention.
Chunk markers
Every section is delimited by paired JSX comments - invisible to readers, trivial for splitters. (Earlier versions of this exporter used HTML comments; we switched to JSX comments in v2.4.0 because MDX 3 - the parser Mintlify uses - forbids HTML comments at the document level.) The example below uses uppercaseRAG-CHUNK so it doesn’t accidentally match a splitter that scans this very page; real markers use lowercase rag-chunk:
\{/\*\s*rag-chunk:(start|end)\b[^*]*\*/\} and treat everything between a matching start/end pair (same id) as one indivisible chunk. Never split inside a chunk. (For backwards compatibility with v2.3.x exports, splitters can OR-match the legacy regex <!--rag-chunk:(start|end)\b[^>]*-->.)
Heading convention
# Title- appears exactly once (the document title in the intro chunk).## Section- opens every top-level chunk. Heading text matches the chunk’stitleattribute.### Sub-section- purely visual; never introduces a new chunk.####and deeper - reserved for inline detail (e.g. per-chart sub-blocks inside the catalogue).

Recommended ingestion pipeline
- Split on
{/* rag-chunk:start ... */}/{/* rag-chunk:end ... */}boundaries. - Use the
idattribute as the vector-store primary key - stable across re-exports. - Store
type,title,tokens~, andbacktest_idas filterable metadata. - Do not further chunk the
facts,claims,qa, orstructuredsections - they’re designed to be retrieved whole. - The
cataloguechunk is large; if your context budget is tight, split it on its###sub-headings instead of dropping it.

Methodology & data
This backtest was executed on historical Binance Spot 1-minute candles for STEEMUSDT, with intrabar fill simulation in “OLHC” mode and a synthetic order latency of 2s applied to each fill to approximate real-world routing delay. The simulator processes every minute sequentially, evaluates the BasicMode rule set, and books fills against the next available bar - a standard event-driven backtesting approach that avoids look-ahead bias. Equity is marked-to-market on every closed trade and aggregated into the equity curve shown above. Configured backtest window: approximately 12.0 months (365 days fromconfig.from to config.to) of STEEMUSDT 1-minute price action - a sample size that is large enough to span multiple short-term regimes. Note: the equity series may cover fewer days if the engine omits leading or trailing flat periods (e.g. dates before the asset began trading); see the Overview section for the exact equity-coverage span.
Live trading considerations
Translating this result to live trading: STEEMUSDT is a deeply-liquid USDT-quoted pair on Binance, so the simulated fills here translate well to live execution at retail size. The high trade frequency means cumulative slippage and exchange-side latency will erode a few percent of the headline return over a full year - budget for that gap. Without a hard stop-loss, the live system depends on the take-profit ladder firing during recovery legs; a prolonged downtrend without recovery will hold positions open longer than backtest aggregates suggest. Additionally, exchange downtime, API rate limits, and funding-rate changes (on perp variants) are not modelled here and should be accounted for in production deployment.Frequently asked questions
Deterministic Q&A - every question is always present so this section can be sliced into stable RAG chunks. Missing API fields render as null; metrics that can’t be derived locally render as “not available”.
Is a 27.55% return on STEEMUSDT a good backtest result?
Is a 27.55% return on STEEMUSDT a good backtest result?
Yes - this clears the bar most automated crypto strategies fail to reach over a comparable window.
What does the 100.0% win rate mean here?
What does the 100.0% win rate mean here?
It means 100.0 out of every 100 closed trades ended profitable. Frequent wins are emotionally easier to operate but say nothing about size - one large loss can offset many small wins.
What is the annualised return for this STEEMUSDT backtest?
What is the annualised return for this STEEMUSDT backtest?
Compounding the 27.55% over 365 days projects to +27.6% per year. This is a directional indicator only - crypto regimes change, and strategies rarely sustain peak performance year-over-year.
Can I run this exact BasicMode configuration live?
Can I run this exact BasicMode configuration live?
The configuration shown in the Strategy Configuration block is the same JSON schema the live unCoded TradingBot consumes, so it can be loaded into a live instance. That is a technical compatibility statement, not a recommendation: a passing backtest is necessary but not sufficient evidence that a configuration will be profitable in live trading. Before any live use, validate on an out-of-sample window, paper-trade it, confirm exchange-side fees match the simulated 7.5/7.5 bps, and start with a position size well below the backtested capital to absorb live slippage and execution differences.
How is this backtest different from others on STEEMUSDT?
How is this backtest different from others on STEEMUSDT?
Every run on the platform uses the same intrabar-fill engine and historical Binance Spot data, so the comparison is apples-to-apples. What differs between runs is the BasicMode parameter set (buy trigger, sell zones, splits, stop-loss) and the time window - both are visible above so you can rerun, tune, or fork this configuration.
This interpretation is generated deterministically from this run’s own metrics. Past performance is not indicative of future results - a profitable backtest is necessary but not sufficient evidence that a strategy will work in live trading on STEEMUSDT.

Strategy Logic
This section explains what the strategy actually does - the rules behind the parameters in Strategy Configuration. Without it the report would be a black box: numbers without semantics. We treat its absence as a defect, not a feature.
GET /modes and select the entry whose filename == "4BasicMode.json" to inspect the public rule fields, or consult the engine source for the executable logic.
Engine Specification
The execution engine is shared across every backtest on this site. Its static semantics - TP-vs-SL ordering inside an OLHC bar, TSL splits bypassing nominal TP, JS-legacy boolean parsing, Binance hard caps, fee model, equity sampling - are documented once in the canonical Engine Specification and pinned per-run via the
engine_version field in this document’s frontmatter (see also the Data Source Metadata section).Engine Specification
Canonical, versioned spec covering the bar-loop, order types, intra-bar fill rules, gap handling, fees, position sizing, risk management, multi-entry cascade, sell-time curves, portfolio accounting, determinism guarantees and the full configuration schema (Section 20).

| Fees as % of Gross Profit | 17316.05% | Total Fees / Gross Profit |
Fee accounting reconciles by construction.
bt.total_fees is the engine-tracked total of every fee actually paid. Per-trade rows in /trades only emit on matched buy+sell pairs, so positions still open at end-of-window contribute their buy-fee to bt.total_fees but not to the per-trade sum. The identity is exact:
bt.total_fees = Sum closed-trade (buy_fee + sell_fee) + Sum open-position buy_fees
Citation rules: use Total Fees Paid for the headline (the authoritative number every consumer should quote), use Closed-trade fees subtotal when reasoning specifically about realized round-trip economics, and use Open-position buy fees when sizing the unrealized exposure of the still-open ladder.Advanced - mechanical breakdown from API field mapping

| Numerical walk-through for this run: |
/trades rows emit only on matched buy+sell pairs. A buy fill that hasn’t found its sell yet (still sitting in the DCA ladder at end-of-window) has already paid its fee - that fee is included in bt.total_fees (B) but not in any per-trade row, so it is not part of (A). The remainder (C) is therefore the buy-side fee paid on the 871 open orders.Holding Period Distribution

static disclaimerGlossary
Definitions for every metric used in this report. Use these to disambiguate when answering questions.
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Return % | Total percentage change of portfolio value over the backtest window: (final_value - start_balance) / start_balance x 100. |
| CAGR | Compound Annual Growth Rate. Annualized return assuming compounding: (final/start)^(365.25/days) - 1. |
| Win Rate | Share of closed trades with positive net P&L (after fees): wins / (wins + losses) x 100. |
| Max Drawdown | Largest peak-to-trough decline of equity, measured in % of the previous peak. The single most important risk metric. |
| Drawdown Duration | Number of days spent below the previous equity peak before recovering (or end of window if not recovered). |
| Sharpe Ratio (annualized) | Mean daily return divided by standard deviation of daily returns, scaled by 365. Risk-adjusted return - higher is better, > 1 is decent. |
| Sortino Ratio (annualized) | Like Sharpe but only penalizes downside volatility. Often more representative for asymmetric strategies. |
| Volatility (ann.) | Standard deviation of daily returns x 365, expressed as a percentage. |
| Time in Market | Fraction of the period where the strategy held base-asset exposure (not 100% cash). |
| Buy & Hold | Reference benchmark: simply buying the underlying token at the start and holding to the end of the window. |
| Outperformance (pp) | Strategy return minus Buy & Hold return, in percentage points (not percent change). |
| Fulfilled Trades | Round-trip trades that have both an entry fill and an exit fill within the window. |
| Active Orders | Open positions still pending exit at the end of the backtest - their unrealized P&L is included in final_value. |
| Lookahead Bias | Using information that wouldn’t have been available at trade time. The validator flags trades whose buy_time precedes the configured from date. |
