Data as of 2026-09-21 02:56 UTC (the ranking run this post was generated from) — source data (JSON); the strategy counts, table figures and 30-day line below are recomputed from it by scripts/weekly-snapshot.py.
Top 3
⛔ 3 of this week’s top 3 are retired or shelved. They appear because the backtest engine still scores them on fresh data, but each has been audited and found unsuitable for trading. Links go to their journal pages — read the verdict before running them.

† = fewer than 100 trades in this 7-day window — low sample, interpret with caution (n≥100 recommended). ‡ = profit factor is at the display cap, not a measured value — the underlying figure was higher (possibly the no-loss sentinel). Treat it as “no losing trades in this window,” not as a score. Move = rank change vs the previous day’s daily ranking, not week over week (▲ up · ▼ down · — unchanged · NEW = not ranked the previous day; not tracked for Bottom 3). Status as of 2026-09-25 (current verdict) — it may differ from the verdict on the post’s original date; the linked journal pages show the same current verdict.
Monthly Context
Over the past 30 days, SuperTrend LONG 6H (⛔ Retired) leads with +6.0% return and a profit factor of 5.40.
So What
Rankings shift every week. Past performance doesn’t predict future results — that’s exactly why we re-run every strategy on fresh data. This ranking is a research snapshot: read each strategy’s verdict before using a result — retired and shelved strategies are not trading candidates.
