My name is Santiago, I'm 26 years old, I'm from Brazil and I started venturing into the markets in 2018.
With the help of this forum and after losing my job during the epidemic, I was able to dedicate myself and survive from my trades until today.
Today I would like to contribute in some way, just as they contributed to my journey.
I hope it is useful for someone who may be going through the same situation that I once went through, when nothing seemed to work.
I apologize for any spelling errors that may occur during my stay here, but I will try my best to be as clear as possible with the help of Google Translate.
ABOUT THE SETUP:
Timeframe: [H4] - [D1]

Here is a list of some pairs that I use and have had positive backtests in recent years:
