A synthetic index, not a forex pair
Volatility 75 is one of Deriv's synthetic indices. Its behaviour is generated to provide a defined volatility level and it runs continuously; it is not a company, currency or the VIX. Central-bank decisions and inflation releases therefore are not its fundamental cause. Analysis should use its own candles and the exact R_75 symbol.
Separate scalping from intraday
An M5/M15/H1 model seeks a short opportunity; H1/H4/D1 targets a broader move. Mixing them often places a scalping stop against the higher trend. SIGNALSB backtests these horizons separately, includes execution cost and retains only a direction whose expectancy, profit factor and statistical lower bound pass defined thresholds.
Entry, stop and expiry
Entry uses the public Deriv bid or ask at publication, not an old screenshot. The zone reflects recent volatility; the stop sits beyond invalidation and a scalp expires quickly. If your platform is outside the zone, do not widen the zone or move the stop merely to fit a position.
Why no strategy always wins
A backtest is a filter, not a promise. A strategy can have positive historical expectancy and lose its next trade. Losing streaks belong to the distribution: reducing size, avoiding many simultaneous entries and keeping complete history matter more than chasing a spectacular win rate.
