Breakouts Are What We Do

TradingPal finds breakouts across stocks, crypto, and ETFs. We look for the same kind of structures that some of the world’s most successful momentum swing traders have built strategies around. Most screeners stop at the shape. TradingPal shows you the historical track record behind every qualifying setup, built on up to 39 years of market data.

The stats above are the median of 25 policy simulations — the middle of the backtest, not a lucky path — with modeled friction already included: 25 bps of adverse entry slippage and a 5% failed-entry allowance. We trade it with our own money — live results are still young, and we'll publish them here as they build. See how we backtest →

Who's behind this

Every screener I tried gave me page after page of lookalike setups — and not one number behind them.

No backtest, no win rate, no way to tell which of them had ever been worth trading. So I built the opposite: every pattern on this site carries its full record — 20162026, losers included.

Questions

We don't publish one yet, and we won't dress a backtest up as one. The record on this page is a historical simulation — the screener's qualifying setups traded by one systematic rulebook, with modeled friction included — and it's labeled that way everywhere it appears. Every pattern also carries its full history of wins and losses, which you can replay bar by bar. In the meantime, we post calls publicly on X before they resolve, so you can watch them play out in real time. A live series will be published once there's enough of it to stand behind.

We post real pattern calls on X as they play out. Every call names its invalidation level, and wins and losses both stay up.
