About FerimanEdge

I lost a lot of money first.

I'm a DevOps engineer. After losing money trading manually, I built a backtester and a systematic research process.

How it actually started

I thought I could trade this. I was wrong.

When Bitcoin first hit $1,000, it seemed obvious. I started trading manually and checked the price every five minutes. In a position, I watched it fall and told myself it would recover. Out of one, I stared at the chart looking for the perfect entry. Nights, weekends, during work. It's an exhausting way to live.

In 2020, I put almost all my trading capital into a hyped altcoin. It lost more than 90% of its value. I lost about 90% of my capital and several months of income. The feeling wasn't panic. It was the frustration of knowing I should have gotten out, and didn't.

Two decisions I made that day

  1. No more coins without real fundamentals.
  2. No more trading without a properly tested system.

I'm a DevOps engineer. I automate everything. So I did it the only way I know how: automate it and let the data decide.

The process

From Bash scripts to a C backtester.

Five years of rebuilding the same tool until it was fast enough to reject what doesn't hold up.

  1. 2021 · BashBacktested popular strategies from the internet with shell scripts. Golden crosses, moving average crossovers. None survived proper testing. One run went from 10 minutes to 1 to 2 minutes.
  2. 2022 · FocusNarrowed the work to BNB/USDT, the most promising pair across all early tests.
  3. 2023 · HardwareA dedicated machine started running backtests 24/7.
  4. 2024 · PythonRewrote the backtester in Python with a web interface. ~1 second per test, but the web layer slowed development. Scrapped it.
  5. 2025 · C engineRebuilt everything in C. One backtest across 8 years of data now takes 0.005 seconds, so tens of millions of candidate configurations can be compared. Historical selection does not eliminate overfitting.
  6. 2026 · Per marketEach market got its own fixed final configuration, evaluated across chronological historical windows. That research powers the Edge Updates on this site.

Historical simulations

Three markets, researched separately.

I don't believe in one-size-fits-all algorithms. Each market has its own configuration and its own backtest.
