# How to Build a Trading Strategy Evaluation Checklist That Works for You?

In the previous sections, we discussed why trading strategies fail, why backtest profits do not guarantee live-trading profits, and how to adjust a strategy when market conditions change.

But all these questions ultimately lead to a more practical one:

**What criteria should we use to decide whether a trading strategy is worth continuing to use?**

Many traders tend to look at a few straightforward numbers: returns, win rate, and maximum drawdown.

These metrics are certainly important, but looking at any one of them

Hey @grok is this CZ in the picture?🤣

$ETH Current price: 2230.75, down 7.99% in 24h, with a trading volume of 909.4M USDT; RSI at 29.4 has entered oversold territory, and the MACD histogram at +1.265 shows bullish momentum quietly building, but MA5=2229.21 remains below MA20=2254.11, so the trend has not reversed. The funding rate is positive at +0.0049%; with price plunging and the rate not falling, this indicates crowded shorts and longs passively holding losing positions, with funding not yet truly turning around. The Fear and Greed Index is at 28, in the fear zone; sentiment is bearish but nearing an extreme, increasing the

Last night, the Nasdaq 100 plunged 6.36%, and $BTC was not spared...

It tumbled from above $80,000 to around $75,000, falling more than 6% in 24 hours, while the crypto market saw over $1 billion in liquidations.

I've been watching the correlation between BTC and U.S. stocks, and this once again confirmed a pattern:

When global capital starts collectively reducing risk exposure, BTC still finds it hard to decouple; especially when market volatility surges, leveraged liquidations further amplify short-term declines.

BTC has now returned to the vicinity of its previous key low, and the $75,

The earlier large bearish candle broke through support, with highs continuing to move lower. The rebound was only a corrective bounce, not a reversal.

Why are traders more likely to take on excessive risk after a streak of profits?

In the cryptocurrency market, there is an easily overlooked risk: after a streak of profits, people may actually become less cautious.

After making profits on several consecutive trades, traders can develop the illusion that they have mastered the market’s rhythm and are likely to correctly predict what comes next. So they start increasing their position sizes, loosening their entry criteria, and even ignoring stop-loss rules they used to follow strictly.

But the market won’t guarantee that you’ll be right toda

# Why Doesn’t Revoking a Wallet Authorization Mean All Risks Are Gone?

In the Web3 world, many users already know that they can protect their digital assets by regularly checking and revoking wallet authorizations they no longer need.

This is a good security habit.

But there’s an easily overlooked question:

**Does revoking one authorization mean the wallet is now safe?**

The answer is no.

Wallet security involves more than token approvals. It also includes signatures, transactions that have already been executed, smart contract risks, and other permissions that may still be active.

November 6, 2026 (Friday) ETH Futures Strategy for Today (based on the current range of approximately $2,220–$2,230)
Core idea (bearish bias, cautious on rebounds)
ETH has quickly pulled back from around $2,420 to around $2,220, breaking below recent support, with weak short-term momentum. Today, prioritize watching for rebounds to stall before considering shorts, or consider longs only after a pullback to lower support. Keep positions light.
Specific strategy directions
1. Short on rebound (primary strategy)
• Watch range: $2,270–$2,320 (or near $2,350)
• Entry reference: If the price rebou

Whether the AI bubble has burst is anyone’s guess, but Wall Street has already started worrying about whether Masayoshi Son can repay his debts.
On November 6, SoftBank’s 5-year credit default swap (CDS) spread surged to 462 basis points, its highest level since October 2022.
Look at SoftBank’s hand: about $64.6 billion worth of OpenAI equity, a controlling stake in Arm, and AI data centers through SB Energy.
The company has spread itself extremely thin, ramped up AI investment, and seen financing costs climb, while meaningful profit returns are still a long way off.

#CLARITYActCouldBeDelayedUntil2028

While everyone in the market is debating the fate of a new legislative bill, the real story is unfolding not in the corridors of Congress, but within the rulebooks quietly being drafted by regulatory agencies—and in the legal footing that stablecoins are beginning to secure.

Following the midterm elections, the Democrats' takeover of both chambers of Congress has cast doubt on the future of the CLARITY Act—the legislative framework most eagerly awaited by the crypto world. Analysts and industry representatives suggest the bill could be shelved until 2028

# Why Might a Once-Effective Strategy Gradually Stop Working?

If a trading strategy has consistently delivered profits in the past, why might it start losing frequently months later, or even after a longer period?

Has the market changed, or is there a problem with the strategy itself?

In the digital asset market, this question is especially worth considering. Market participants, liquidity, volatility structure, and trading behavior can all change. Opportunities that could be captured in the past may not remain available forever.

**The fact that a strategy once worked only shows that it pe

Why did the trial position liquidate my principal? Wasn't it given to me just to play with?

Judge the chart pattern for yourself. Anyway, if it stays sideways there for a while, I’d suggest going long at a slightly lower level and setting a tight stop-loss; a move up is still possible
