**Important Setup Count Disclosure**The total setup statistics evaluate every valid SST opportunity independently. They are designed to measure the complete statistical potential, frequency, and consistency of the SST setup.

These totals should not be interpreted as the number of trades one person could realistically execute on a single account. Multiple valid setups sometimes appeared while an earlier trade was still active, creating overlapping opportunities.

A separate one-trade-at-a-time analysis removes those overlapping setups by taking the first available trade, waiting until its selected profit target or stop loss is reached, and then taking the next setup that appears after the position has closed. This provides a more realistic representation of executable trade count, profit, and time in the market.

Effect of the Trend Filter

Target All Setups Net With Trend Net Difference
1:1 $27,849.00 $19,134.50 −$8,714.50

1:5 $53,247.00 $45,279.50 −$7,967.50
The trend filter removed 106 setups, representing 35.3% of all opportunities. The WITH TREND approach used fewer trades; its effect on win rate, profit factor and net profit varied by target and is shown above.

What Stands Out Most

1

1:1 Was Extremely Consistent

Across all 300 setups, the 1:1 target generated a 92.00% win rate, a 11.50 profit factor and 22 profitable days out of 22.

  • All Setups Win Rate: 92.00%
  • WITH TREND Win Rate: 94.33%
  • Profitable Days: 22 of 22

1:5 Led WITH TREND Net Profit

The 1:5 WITH TREND model produced the highest trend-only net profit in the complete raw dataset.

  • 96 Wins and 98 Losses
  • 49.48% Win Rate
  • 4.90 Profit Factor
  • $45,279.50 Net Profit
3

1:4 Produced the Highest Raw Net Profit

The 1:4 target generated the highest estimated net profit across all setups.

  • All Setups Net Profit: $53,745.00
  • Win Rate: 50.67%
  • Profit Factor: 4.11

Trade Duration Changes the Practical Result

After overlapping opportunities were removed, the realistic one-trade-at-a-time leader was 1:2.

  • Setups Analyzed: 300
  • WITH TREND Setups: 194
  • Highest Duration Efficiency: 1:1

The Complete Raw Dataset Confirms Strong Performance Across Multiple Targets

All 300 complete NinjaScript setup records were recalculated directly, including target-hit durations, stop durations and overlapping trade sequences.

The highest raw net profit came from the 1:4 ALL SETUPS model at $53,745.00. After enforcing one open trade at a time, the 1:2 target produced the highest realistic net profit at $33,515.25.

The realistic 1:2 model produced 75.32% wins, $33,515.25 net profit and $889.79 per combined trade hour.

Historical research results are based on the analyzed sample and estimated trading costs. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

**Performance Analysis Disclosure**

These results evaluate every valid SST setup independently to measure the complete statistical performance and potential of the setup. Multiple opportunities may have occurred while another trade was already active, so the total setup count does not represent the number of trades one person could necessarily execute on a single account.

SST Trade Duration Analysis

Average and combined trade durations for winning and losing setups
across each SST risk-to-reward target.

Target Winners Avg Win Time Combined Win Time Losers Avg Loss Time Combined Loss Time
1 : 1 276 3.4 Minutes 15.6 Hours 24 7.0 Minutes 2.8 Hours
1 : 2 222 9.9 Minutes 36.6 Hours 78 12.6 Minutes 16.4 Hours
1 : 3 183 19.7 Minutes 60.1 Hours 117 19.4 Minutes 37.9 Hours

1 : 5 126 56.0 Minutes 117.6 Hours 174 35.3 Minutes 102.4 Hours

Trade Duration Statistics:

Average and combined trade durations are calculated from entry until either the applicable profit target or stop loss was reached. Winning statistics include only setups that successfully reached the specified target. Losing statistics include setups that hit the stop before reaching that target.

**Trade Duration Disclosure**

Trade-duration statistics include every valid SST setup independently. Because some setups overlapped, combined trade time represents the total duration of all recorded opportunities and not the actual number of clock hours one trader would have spent in the market.

SST Profit Efficiency Analysis

Total net profit and profit efficiency based on the combined recorded
duration of all winning and losing setups at each risk-to-reward target.

Target Net Profit Combined Trade Time Net Profit Per Combined Trade Hour
1 : 1 $27,849.00 18.4 Hours $1,512.16 Per Hour
1 : 2 $42,042.00 53.0 Hours $792.50 Per Hour
1 : 3 $50,259.00 98.0 Hours $512.67 Per Hour
1 : 4 $53,745.00 146.4 Hours $366.99 Per Hour
1 : 5 $53,247.00 220.0 Hours $242.07 Per Hour

Profit Efficiency Statistics:

Net profit is based on a fixed risk of $125.00 per setup and includes estimated commissions, spread and slippage totaling $11.75 per setup. The analysis includes 300 setups.

Net Profit Per Combined Trade Hour is calculated by dividing total net profit by the combined recorded duration of all winning and losing setups. This measures strategy efficiency and should not be interpreted as an hourly wage or the actual number of clock hours spent trading, because multiple setups may overlap.

**Profit Efficiency Disclosure**

Profit-efficiency statistics are based on every valid SST opportunity evaluated independently. Net Profit Per Combined Trade Hour measures the statistical efficiency of all recorded setups and should not be interpreted as actual hourly earnings, wages, or realistic one-account performance because overlapping trades are included.

Realistic One-Trade-at-a-Time Analysis

This simulation shows which SST setups could have been taken
realistically using one account and only one open trade at a time.
Each reward target was simulated independently because larger targets
generally required more time to complete.

Realistic Highest Net Profit: 1:2 Target

After removing setups that occurred while another trade was active, the 1:2 target produced the highest estimated net profit at $33,515.25. The 1:1 target produced the greatest net-profit efficiency per combined trade hour.

Realistic Execution Disclosure:
For each trading day, the earliest available setup was taken and remained active until the selected profit target or stop loss was reached. Every additional setup appearing before that trade closed was skipped. After the position closed, the next available setup was taken, and this process continued through the remainder of the day.Because each reward target produced a different exit time, overlapping setups were removed separately for the 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4 and 1:5 simulations. Results assume $125 of fixed risk and $11.75 in estimated commissions, spread and slippage for every executed trade. Combined trade time is the sum of the durations of the trades selected by the simulation and is not an hourly wage or guaranteed earnings figure. Historical results do not guarantee future performance.
