• Strategy Optimization: Improve trade selection, reduce false signals, and research setups targeting 1:3 or better planned risk–reward.
• Quantitative Analysis: Research candlestick patterns, price action, volume, ATR, ADX, VWAP, Pivot Points, and other technical indicators.

What We Expect

We are not looking for someone who simply knows technical indicators.
