Bitcoin Coil does not chase every breakout — it waits for a volatility squeeze first, then trades the release. That patience is why its profit factor stays above 3.5 on every risk tier. Setup takes two minutes; tier choice deserves five.

Setup
Attach to a BTCUSD H4 chart (your broker's exact symbol). Defaults are the published configuration. Every trade carries a hard stop at 2x ATR; an ATR trailing stop (2.5x) then follows the move. No grid, no martingale, no averaging.
Tiers — quality holds, size scales
Real ticks, BTCUSD H4 2018-2026, $10,000: Defensive +128% / PF 4.32 / eqDD 7.4%; Standard +377% / PF 4.12 / eqDD 8.7%; Aggressive +1,197% / PF 3.63 / eqDD 16.0% (recommended); Ultra +2,251% / PF 3.59 / eqDD 21.4% (published default). The signal is identical on every tier — note that PF stays at 3.5+ even at Ultra, which is unusual: the squeeze filter keeps trade quality constant while only size scales. Aggressive is our everyday recommendation; Ultra if you accept the 21% drawdown.
What normal looks like
Squeezes are rare by definition: Bollinger-inside-Keltner compressions form a few times per quarter on H4. Long flat stretches are the strategy, not a malfunction — the EA is waiting for the market to coil. When it fires, the move tends to resolve fast in either direction.
