AI Summary

Summary

  • The author describes a 5-day live trading experiment using an AI agent (Claude via MCP connector) that trades either TQQQ or SQQQ once per day, claiming a 100% win rate so far (4 trades, 1 skip).
  • Backtest results (in/out of sample) show 45% annualized return, 6.6% max drawdown, 2.07 Sharpe ratio — but the methodology is vague and sample size is tiny.
  • The thesis is that a simple single‑directional bet on leveraged ETFs, filtered by overnight gap rules, can generate consistent profits with minimal drawdown.

  • Quality assessment: Noise. Extremely short track record (4 trades), no disclosed logic or risk parameters, and backtest details are insufficient. Likely overfitted or cherry‑picked.
