Simulated paper trading, published T+1. Real market prices, modelled fills and friction — no real money is deployed. A research log, not advice, not signals.

The Paper Book

Our automated forward test, published one day after each trade settles — strictly T+1, never open positions, never same-day exits. The survivors, the killed strategies, and the written rules that decide which is which.

The rules — written before the cohort started

KILL: n≥15 closed with avg R ≤ −0.2. PROMOTE: n≥30, avg R ≥ +0.15, profitable in both halves. No mid-cohort config changes, no manual exits.

Active cohort: VWAP Mean-Reversion, OI-Wall Breakout and OI-Flow Widening, running under these rules from 8 Jul 2026.

How fills, costs and P&L are computed

Every trade is executed by an automated paper-trading daemon on live market data during NSE hours — no human picks, no hindsight. Fills cross the full bid-ask spread (buy at ask, sell at bid); when a quote is missing a per-side slippage haircut is applied instead. Every round trip is charged the full statutory stack: brokerage, STT, exchange transaction charges, SEBI fees, 18% GST on charges, and stamp duty. All positions are force squared-off at 15:15 IST. All P&L figures are net of these costs. This page is a research log of a forward test — trades are published strictly T+1, only after the trade has closed and the session has ended. It is NOT trading advice, NOT a signal service, and contains no recommendations.

Rows marked “excluded (bug-era/manual)” are removed from every headline statistic and equity curve, but stay visible in the log — the record is corrected, never edited away.

Important disclaimer

SIMULATED PAPER TRADING — no real money is deployed and no real orders are placed. Results use real market prices with modelled fills and friction, but simulated results have inherent limitations and are NOT indicative of future returns. This is a research and education record of our own systems published T+1 after exit — not investment advice, not a recommendation, and not a signal service. TrueTrend is not a SEBI-registered investment adviser or research analyst.
