Most backtests fabricate impossible returns by assuming zero fees and zero slippage. Zengtrade factors realistic market realities into every paper trade on UMA:

  • Spot Friction: Excellent trend filter that avoids choppy chop periods at the expense of slightly delayed entries.
  • Risk Guidance: Size positions according to ATR volatility to ensure stop loss does not exceed 1.5% account equity.
  • 35 bps Friction Model: Exchange taker fee (10 bps) + maker fee (10 bps) + dynamic slippage buffer (15 bps).
