Setups
Smart Money Concepts (SMC) trade scenarios. Pick a setup to backtest, run live/paper, or scan the market for active setups.
How it works
Each setup is a phased checklist (FVG, liquidity, structure shift, POI, etc.). Backtest to see win rate and ROI. Scan Market to find coins with active setups. Enable per setup, then turn on Use Setups for Auto-Trade below to trade them alongside (or instead of) the scoring engine.
Backtest uses your live trading settings
Setup backtests now run through the same engine as your live auto-trade — the SMC scenario fires the entry, but every other gate (confidence filter, ADX, volatility, BTC filter, late-trend reject, candle-close confirm, R:R, cooldowns) and every position management action (breakeven, trailing stop, lock-in, partial TPs, trailing TP, score recheck, max daily loss) come from your Trading Settings.
That means the win-rate / ROI you see here is what you would actually get if you enabled this setup for auto-trade today — not a hypothetical "perfect entry" run. The toggles in the backtest modal are per-test overrides on top of your live settings; leave them at defaults to mirror live exactly. AI/Coach/Guardian SL adjustments are live-only and won't appear in backtest.
