    If you have the data, I could analyse why it does not become profitable when you flip the trade. Mathematically/theoretically it should be inversed.

    It's because the inverse is only profitable for that sample, doesn't mean the inverse of a losing stategy will be profitable over the long run. If it was that easy we'd all just do the opposite of really illogical and unprofitable strategies and get rich.

    Back-testing doesn't guarantee a strategy will perform well in the future also, what guarantees future profitibilty is sound logic.

    Ever good system has drawdowns, study their equity curves at peaks and when they turn... long term commercial systems, check out Futures Truth. I do it the other way around waiting for DD to end then automation kicks that system to take signals till new equity highs and then no more signals taken.

    Either become Forex dealer or do brokerage and get commissions and then see what dumb idea that was, LOL
