Across is the deepest fall along the way. Up is the result. Dots above the black line finished above zero. The middle result is −0.10.

How AVS VWAP EMA Pullback Pro works

Rules in this group usually work like this. It only acts during set hours, such as the London or New York morning. Crypto never closes, so those hours are a choice, not a fact of the market. The question is whether those hours behave the same way on more than one coin. The next paragraph is this particular rule, which can be narrower than the group.

It can buy, and it can bet on falling prices. It acts only when several checks agree at once. It leans on ATR, DMI, EMA, RSI; those names are explained on their own pages, further down. The exact line is in the list below, in the author's names, and you can skip that list. When it enters, it also sets a stop or a target, so a trade can close without a new signal.

The author did not set a size, so each trade uses whatever amount the code assumes. It holds one trade at a time.

The exact condition, from the code

How the backtest was run

Every strategy was tried the same way, on the settings the author published.

The years are October 2021 to June 2026. The prices are from Bybit, for 13 widely traded coins, mostly on hourly, 4-hour and daily charts, with some faster charts. That was 47,242 tries. The window stored in the files is 2021-09..2026-06.

599 rules produced a finished try. A rule that finished above zero on at least 12 cells, before any fee, was tried again with a fee of 0.12 percent per side. Only buys are counted in that second try. 273 rules got it.

The method, the aggregate results and a downloadable table are on the study page. What the desk does with the results beyond these pages is its own.

Before any fee, it was tried on 67 cells. It placed a trade on 48 of them. 7 of the cells that traded finished above zero (14.6%).

It was not run a second time with a fee. That second pass happens only when at least 12 cells finished above zero before fees. 273 rules got that pass.

Cells tried	67
Cells that placed a trade	48
Finished above zero	7 (14.6% of the cells that traded)
Middle result, before fees	−0.1%
Strongest cell, the top of the range	ETH 4-hour: +5.1%
Weakest cell, the bottom of the range	ETH hourly: −30.1%
Middle drawdown, before fees	1.1%

How to read the result

How to read the number

The median of every cell that traded is the result. No fee has been taken off, so the number is a ceiling. A fee comes off each trade, and this page does not guess that cost, because this rule did not get the second pass where the fee is applied. The weakest and the strongest cells are not a result on their own.

The middle drawdown, on the cells that traded, was 1.1%.

What this does not show

The useful question is whether the same hours work on other coins. Crypto has no closing bell, so the hour is a choice.

Nothing on this page was fit to the cell that finished highest. One coin, one chart speed, or one strong stretch is a single row. It is not the rule. Other years, another exchange, or another fee would be a different measurement.
