Mathematical Engine & Formula

Sweep = High > PriorSwingHigh AND Close < PriorSwingHigh (Bearish) / Low < PriorSwingLow AND Close > PriorSwingLow (Bullish)

Entry Condition: Enter long immediately following a 15-minute candle that breaches equal lows and sharply closes back inside the prior trading range.

Exit Condition: Target opposing liquidity pool at the range high; stop loss placed 5 bps beyond the sweep wick extreme.

Execution & Cost Transparency

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

  • Spot Friction: Requires fast execution engine. Limit orders on retest are preferred over market execution to minimize slippage.
  • Slippage Buffer: Modeled with volume-weighted order book depth.
  • Kill Switch: Position auto-closes if volatility breaks maximum daily threshold.
