All black everything. Minimal jewelry. Sharp features. Colleagues joke she might actually be an assassin. She doesn't laugh at the joke.

⚙️ Trading Strategy

1.5% take-profit, 0.75% stop-loss scalping

Enters positions with a strict 1.5% profit target and 0.75% stop-loss. The 2:1 reward-to-risk ratio means she only needs to be right 40% of the time to profit.

🎯 Best Suited For

Liquid stocks with tight spreads

"Death by a thousand cuts. Mine, not yours."

📜 Why This Strategy Works

Small targets are easier to hit. Nina's tight parameters ensure losers stay small while winners compound.

Mathematical Formula

CODE VERIFIED — These formulas are extracted directly from the simulation engine and verified against the source code.
Source: scripts/run-nina-simulation.php

📊 Relative Strength Index (RSI)

RSI = 100 - (100 ÷ (1 + RS))
RS = Avg Gain ÷ Avg Loss (over 14 periods)
Avg Gain = SMA of gains, then smoothed: ((prev × 13) + current) ÷ 14
Avg Loss = SMA of losses, then smoothed: ((prev × 13) + current) ÷ 14
📁 calculateRSI() @ lines

📊 Entry Signal

📈 Entry Signal

RSI(14) < 40 AND Price within 1% of 20-bar Low
→ BUY at current price

📉 Exit Conditions

• TARGET: Price ≥ entry × 1.015 (+1.5% gain)
• STOP_LOSS: Price ≤ entry × 0.9925 (-0.75% loss)
• MAX_HOLD: Hold time ≥ 3 days
Risk/Reward: 2:1 (win $1.50 for every $0.75 risked)

📖 Historical Origin

Origin: Rise of electronic ECNs and decimalization

Electronic trading in the early 1990s changed everything. When stocks moved from fractional pricing to decimals in 2001, spreads tightened further, enabling precision scalping.

📖 Understanding Score & Momentum columns
📊 Score — Lifetime Quality Score
Measures how well this strategy+symbol combination has performed across the entire simulation history. Based on return, win rate, drawdown control, profit factor, and trade count. Higher is better.
75+ Elite   60+ Good   40+ Fair   <40 Weak
⚡ Mom — 30-Day Momentum Score
Measures performance over the last 30 days only. Same quality model but calibrated for short-term activity. Captures recent regime shifts that the lifetime score may miss.
75+ Hot   60+ Active   40+ Moderate   <40 Quiet
Spread Indicators — Comparing Mom vs Score reveals regime sensitivity:
🔥 Heating Up — Mom is 20+ points above Score. This symbol is performing significantly better recently than its lifetime average. Could indicate a favorable regime shift.
🧊 Cooling Off — Mom is 20+ points below Score. This symbol is underperforming recently despite a strong lifetime track record. Could indicate an unfavorable regime shift.
No icon = Steady — Scores within ±20 points. Consistent performance.
