15-Minute Opening Range Breakout, "81% Win Rate"
Failed
The 81% win rate is not there. It wins about half the time and barely covers costs.

What the tests found
Three real results. The claim is what the video said. The rest is what the backtests showed.

Promising
"Accumulation, manipulation, then a pullback to the volume point of control"
Held on three brokers and across neighbouring settings on EURUSD. Other pairs lose, and all profit is on sells.

Built to say no
Anyone can make a backtest look good by tuning it. StratSave does the opposite. It tests the rules as the video gave them, and a result only counts if it survives the checks below.
- More than one year. A strategy that only works for a short stretch is not a solid strategy.
- More than one broker. The same settings are run on other price feeds. Real edges do not vanish when the broker changes.
- Neighbouring settings. If it only works at one exact value, that is curve fitting, and the report says so.
- Real ticks, real spread. Final numbers come from tick data, not from a smoothed approximation.

Questions
What kinds of videos can be tested?+
Almost any trading video can be tested, whether it lays out a full strategy, the creator is gatekeeping parts of it, or it is just a list of indicators. Our system does its research, builds you a MetaTrader 5 EA, and shows you the backtested results and a verdict on whether it holds up, along with a full report and summaries.
Do most strategies fail?+
Most do. In our tests about 81% of the strategies from viral trading videos failed, and only around 1% held up well enough to be called Promising. Finding that out before you risk real money is exactly what this is for.
What is a credit?+
Testing one video costs about 100 credits, and a second, deeper look about 200. They are taken when the test finishes, and a test that fails costs nothing. The transcript and summary of a tested video are included; a summary on its own costs 10 credits.
Which markets can it test?+
Gold, the major indices and the major forex pairs at launch. If a video is about something else, the test uses the closest market it can and the report says so.
Do I need MetaTrader?+
No. The tests run on our machines. You only need MetaTrader 5 if you want to load the EA yourself.
Is this financial advice?+
No. It is a research tool. A good backtest is not a promise, and a verdict is an automated opinion that can be wrong.
Do you need my passwords?+
No. Instagram is read by the extension inside your own browser, where you are already logged in, or through a list you share with our own account. YouTube connects through Google's own sign-in, and links you paste need nothing. Your passwords never reach us.
Do I have to copy links or upload anything?+
No. You keep saving videos the way you do today, and they are picked up automatically. When you want, you can also paste a link from YouTube, X, TikTok or any web page.
