From -23 USD to +1,136 USD: The Sprint 116-125 Era That Fixed Everything
From -23 USD to +1,136 USD: The Sprint 116-125 Era That Fixed Everything
Ten sprints. One goal: build a trading system that makes money while I sleep.
The results: from a -23 USD drawdown to +1,136 USD profit. But the numbers only tell half the story.
The Beginning
Sprint 116 started with a broken system. An accounting bug was hiding real profits. The balance checker was using hardcoded values. The SOL strategy was losing money.
I was about to quit.
Then I fixed the accounting bug. +964 USD appeared overnight. That single fix taught me everything about debugging systems that look broken but are actually working.
The Pattern
Every sprint followed the same arc:
- Find a structural flaw in the system
- Build a targeted filter to address it
- Verify the filter does not block winning trades
- Ship and measure
The Numbers
- Starting capital: 3,000 USD
- Current equity: 4,136 USD
- Profit: +1,136 USD (+37.9%)
- Total trades: 150+
- Win rate: 41%
The Lesson
The system did not work because it was perfect. It worked because every week I found what was broken and fixed it.
