How FibSniper Pro: SMC Edition works
Rules in this group usually work like this. It tries to act the way a person reading a chart would: at spots where price turned, at gaps, and at places where many people are likely to have set a stop. In code those ideas become counts of bars. The result depends on how those spots are defined. 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, EMA, pivot high, pivot low; 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.
Each trade uses a fixed size of 5. It holds one trade at a time.
The exact condition, from the code
Same rule, translated from the code, in the author's names. You can skip this list if the paragraph above was enough.
- Enters long when buy raw and bars since last buy is at or above Signal Cooldown (bars) (5) and no position is open.
- Enters short when sell raw and bars since last sell is at or above Signal Cooldown (bars) (5) and no position is open.
- Places a stop the larger of 1 and (|(trade entry − trade stop)| / mintick) ticks away, a trailing stop when a long position is open.
- Places a stop the larger of 1 and (|(trade entry − trade stop)| / mintick) ticks away, a trailing stop when a short position is open.
| Buys or sells | It can buy, and it can bet on falling prices. |

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 54 cells. It placed a trade on 52 of them. 0 of the cells that traded finished above zero (0.0%).
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 | 54 |
|---|---|
| Cells that placed a trade | 52 |
| Finished above zero | 0 (0.0% of the cells that traded) |
| Middle result, before fees | −0.9% |
| Strongest cell, the top of the range | TRX daily: −0.0% |
| Weakest cell, the bottom of the range | BTC 4-hour: −476.0% |
| Middle drawdown, before fees | 1.0% |

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 1.0%.
What this does not show
The useful question is how the turning points are counted in the code. A person can be vague. The code has to count bars.
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.

- Cell
- One coin on one chart speed. Bitcoin every 4 hours is one cell. Bitcoin once a day is another.

- How often a new price bar is drawn. 15m means every 15 minutes, 1h means hourly, 4h means every 4 hours, 1D means once a day.
- Fee, per side
- A cost taken each time the rule trades. Per side means once on the way in and once on the way out.
- Median
- Line the cells up from the biggest loss to the biggest gain. The median is the middle one. Half the cells did better and half did worse.
