This result predates the canonical execution engine (execution_mtf.py) and the account-blown correctness fix - it is not directly comparable to a fresh Quant Lite backtest and is not validated performance.

Breakeven OFFTrailing OFFPartial Close OFF

Breakeven, ATR trailing, and partial close are frozen off for Quant Lite - this matches the position management (or lack of it) in the MQL5/MQL4/Pine Script code this strategy would generate. Tick-level execution is not modeled; stop-loss and take-profit are resolved with 1-minute precision instead.
