Tightening the Execution Filter
Choppy breakeven results usually indicate you are trading inside the middle of a larger HTF structure, where 15-minute signals lose their edge. The immediate adjustment is to drastically reduce frequency. Ignore the minor intraday liquidity sweeps and only execute when price reaches the absolute extremes of the H4 or D1 zones. If this drops your execution rate to just one or two trades a week, the market is simply not providing the environment required for the aggressive phase of the series.
