EthBybitFundingResetBreakout

ETH Bybit Funding-Reset Breakout Follow-Through

A single-leg long/short strategy on ETHUSD.BYBIT using 4-hour bars. It trades only when an abrupt funding-rate reset is confirmed by a same-bar directional range break, then holds for a fixed 24 hours. The strategy remains flat about 85% of the time. Risk 1% of equity per trade, sized from stop distance, with maximum notional exposure capped at 25% of equity and leverage limited to 2x.

Iteration 3 preserves the passing strategy structure and loosens only the funding-reset and breakout thresholds so the mechanism can trigger in the sandbox history.

The strategy attempted to capture ETH funding resets confirmed by range breaks on 4-hour Bybit data. Its sandbox backtest produced no trades, so verification failed and the run was abandoned before review, optimization, analyst, or risk stages.

Entry thresholds and signal alignment should be tested against the available data to ensure trades occur before later-stage evaluation.

Verification failed at Layer 3 because the entry condition triggered zero times across 14,382 evaluated bars. Three iterations were recorded; later stages were not reached.

The strategy tried to trade ETHUSD.BYBIT 4-hour breakouts when funding-rate resets aligned with directional range breaks, using fixed 24-hour holds and risk-based sizing.

No backtest metrics were produced because the sandbox backtest generated zero trades after processing 14,401 bars.
