What Is the Sharpe Ratio? How Can You Measure Whether a Trading Strategy’s Returns Are Worth the Risk?
In cryptocurrency trading, a high return does not necessarily mean a strategy is good. If a strategy can generate high returns but comes with sharp volatility and significant drawdowns, we need to assess whether those returns are worth the risk. The Sharpe ratio is one tool that can help answer this question.
First, what is the Sharpe ratio?
The Sharpe ratio measures the excess return earned by a portfolio or trading strategy per unit of volatility risk. Generally, a higher value indicates be

Golden September and Silver October have come to a close; November is a fresh start.
Markets change by the hour, and prices rise and fall. Staying steady through volatility has never depended on luck, but on accurately gauging market rhythm and maintaining consistent execution discipline.
This month, I’ll break down strategies for short-term trading, swing positioning, medium- and long-term holdings, and range orders for different capital sizes. I’ll assess the direction in advance and provide clear entry and exit levels, so every trade has a disciplined plan. $BTC

Yesterday, Da Chao said pons at 0.19 was a once-in-a-century bottom. Today, it climbed as high as 0.2317, up more than 20% from the bottom.
After he said that, it didn't even come close to 0.19. It bottomed at 0.1953, and buyers scooped it up immediately.
Some say this is just a rebound. Da Chao's take is simple: a coin that's been falling for two months finally couldn't be pushed lower for the first time—that's a bottom forming.
Let's take another look at its fundamentals. It's the leading launchpad on Robinhood Chain, and most of the chain's meme coins come from it. All the tokens are circul

What Is Out-of-Sample Testing? Why Can Data Not Used to Optimize a Strategy Better Test Its True Capabilities?
In cryptocurrency trading, a strategy may perform well in historical backtests yet quickly fail in new market conditions. The problem may not necessarily lie in the trading logic itself; the strategy may also be overfitted to the historical data used for optimization. Out-of-sample testing is an important way to identify this issue.
First, what is out-of-sample testing?
Out-of-sample testing means using data that was not involved in strategy development or parameter optimization to in

After a high-volume daily candle like this, there’s a good chance of a sustained rally. Don’t short against the trend right now—the risk/reward just isn’t attractive. Price is currently hovering near the neckline, and we should see a pullback on lower time frames to the 79000–80000 range. This is probably the last chance to get in. $BTC

$HUT HUT plunged 21.98% in 24 hours, with the price at 48.88 and a low of 47.63. Trading volume was down to just 3.3M—this isn’t a pullback; it’s a liquidity stampede. BTC is flatlining ahead of the Fed’s rate decision, with all the money waiting for Powell to speak. Altcoins and mining stocks are being drained first, and high-beta names like HUT fall three times harder than BTC—that’s a hard rule. Everyone is betting on rate cuts, but look closely: HUT fell from 62.69 to 47.63, a 24% drop. How much did BTC move over the same period? This is the real volatility of mining stocks during periods

$TRUMP Is Showing Oversold Signals, but a Bottom Still Requires Evidence That the Decline Has Stopped
$TRUMP is currently priced at 1.26, down 16.721744877726362% over 24 hours, with an intraday high of 1.524 and a low of 1.218. The 1-hour and 4-hour trends are both weak, and the 1-hour volume ratio is just 0.022126930313084815. The price has fallen from 1.524 to around 1.218—a sufficiently steep drop for oversold conditions to start emerging, with demand for a rebound building. But oversold describes exhausted momentum; it does not confirm a reversal. Until the structure stops weakening, I wo

Gate has officially launched Proof of Security, or PoSEC, extending beyond Proof of Reserves by disclosing the distribution of cold-storage and hot-wallet assets and introducing a cold storage coverage ratio to measure protection under extreme-risk scenarios. Gate’s latest cold storage coverage ratio stands at 104.58%, with 88.26% of assets in cold storage and 11.74% in hot wallets. A coverage ratio of at least 100% means cold-storage assets alone would still be sufficient to cover all user assets even if hot-wallet assets were fully lost. Exchange security is not only about whether reserves are sufficient, but also how assets are stored and protected under extreme conditions. Could cold storage coverage become a new industry standard?[👉 Learn more](https://gate.com/proof-of-security)
