Today, I’m starting a new trading challenge.

I’m starting with just $10 and building a trading system from the ground up.

My goal isn't to turn $10 into $100 overnight.

My goal is much simpler:

Can I build a trading strategy that actually works over a large sample of trades?

🔻 My Strategy: Trend Breakdown

The setup I’m currently testing is:

Uptrend → Consolidation → Breakdown → Retest → Rejection → Short

I will not take every breakdown.

I will wait for the conditions defined by my strategy and record every trade — including the losing ones.

🧪 Backtest Challenge

I'm targeting 100 trades.

For every trade, I'll track:

• Entry

• Stop Loss

• Take Profit

• Risk/Reward

• Win or Loss

• Maximum profit reached

• Maximum drawdown

• Why the setup worked or failed

The purpose is to find out whether this strategy has a real edge — not just whether I can get lucky on a few trades.

📉 Case #001 — Marscoin

My first test was $MARSCOIN

The Trend Breakdown setup initially worked.

With approximately $10 capital, the position reached around +$50 unrealized PnL.

But then came a sudden pump.

The bearish setup failed and the position was eventually liquidated.

It was a painful result — but it's exactly the kind of trade I need to study.

Because a losing trade doesn't automatically mean the strategy is bad.

And a winning trade doesn't automatically mean the strategy is good.

The data from many trades will decide that.

🎯 The Challenge

Capital: $10

Strategy: Trend Breakdown

Target: 100 Backtest Cases

Current: Case #001

Result: ❌ Loss / Liquidated

From now on, I'm documenting the journey publicly.

Wins.

Losses.

Mistakes.

Lessons.

Statistics.

No cherry-picking.

No fake win rate.

Just the process of trying to build a better trading system.


$10 → 100 Trades → One Tested Strategy

Let's see where this experiment goes.
