How you trade, not how much.

Barely on chain this window.

Fewer trades than the window minimum — 3 in a day, 5 in a week, 10 in a month, 20 in a year.

One trade carried everything.

A single position made more than 60% of the gross profit.

Plenty of volume, not much landing.

More than five times the minimum trade count, and a win rate under 35%.

You win often. You win small.

Win rate above 45%, and the median exit under 1.6×.

Most of the book is underwater and still open.

More than 60% of open-position value is sitting at a loss.

In and out before the chart loads.

Median hold under ten minutes, and a win rate above 50%.

Many small green trades, stacked.

More than three times the minimum trades, median profit under 0.05 SOL, and still green.

You hold through everything.

Median hold longer than seven days.

Every trade is a different universe.

Per-trade ROI dispersion in the top 10% of the live season cohort.

Consistent, and it barely dips.

Win rate above 55%, and max drawdown under 20%.

Green in every stretch of the window.

More than three times the minimum trades, and every sub-period of the window finished green.

Right about where you started.

None of the eleven rules above matched. The fallback, not a consolation.
