Crypto assets carry high risk
- Crypto-asset prices can change by very large amounts in a very short time; you may lose all of the money you invest.
- Crypto assets are subject to limited regulation in many countries; exchanges may go bankrupt, halt trading or restrict access to accounts.
- Markets are open 24/7; when liquidity is low, prices can move unexpectedly.
Leveraged (futures) trading
Leverage magnifies gains and losses. A small adverse price move can liquidate your position and you may lose your entire margin. Funding fees increase the cost of positions held for a long time.
Limits of backtest results
A backtest is a model-based estimate of how a strategy would have performed in the past; it does not show the result you will actually achieve.
- Past performance is not indicative of future results.
- Fee, slippage and fill assumptions do not fully reflect real conditions; real fills may be worse.
- Funding fees are not modeled for futures; liquidation is calculated with a simplified, conservative model.
- Historical data may be incomplete or wrong; delisted symbols and extraordinary market events affect results.
- Optimization can produce parameters that overfit the past. Out-of-sample testing reduces this risk but does not eliminate it.
