The Tested Desk
Would this strategy have passed a prop-firm evaluation? I run the numbers.

Disclosure

Affiliate relationship. This site earns a commission if you buy an evaluation through this link. The firm is Strix Options LLC (strixoptionsfunding.com). The link is https://tradersgauntlet.com/go/strix, which redirects to Strix Options LLC's site with a referral tag. The discount code shown alongside it is Strix Options LLC's own public promotion. The link is the attribution, not the code.

What that does and does not buy. It does not buy Strix Options LLC a favourable write-up. The first post on this site concludes that the strategy it examines fails at the conservative fill assumption, and prints Strix Options LLC's own risk disclaimer verbatim in the process. If a rule set is bad for a strategy, the post says so.

Relationship disclosed: affiliate only. This site is not operated by, endorsed by, or affiliated with Strix Options LLC beyond that referral arrangement.

Simulated results. Everything here is backtested and simulated. No post reports a funded-account result, and no post forecasts earnings. Nothing on this site is investment advice or a recommendation to trade any security or derivative.

Strix Options LLC's own words on simulation, which are worth more than mine:

"Simulated fills never face real liquidity, real slippage, or the pressure of real money at stake, and any program built after the fact tends to flatter its own design."
