Bottom-fishing BTC

DISCOVERED   Discovered — found in a sweep, not yet validated

Hypothesis and result

BTC at a 20-day low, bought and held one day: 60.6% over break-even against a 50.1% baseline, median +0.52%, n=142. Above its yearly baseline in 6 of 6 years. One of 19 candidates tested together; the other 18 fell.

Bottom-fishing works for BTC and XRP, not for SOL, ETH, gold or Brent — the two with the most monetary character.
