How this simulation works

Targets are price changes in either direction: 0.50% means a move from $100 to $100.50 or $99.50. Volatility is the standard deviation of one-minute log returns, not a fixed move each minute. The seed repeats the same generated price path. Use the same target and hold time across rows to isolate the effect of leverage.

Each row has its own bankroll and LP, and sees the same generated price path at five-second intervals. Both legs open together. The first target, time limit or liquidation closes the pair; another cycle starts if sufficient collateral remains. Remaining positions close at the end of the hour. Changing an input clears the previous results.

This uses the practice research model: no conventional fees, a hypothetical winner impact curve and a 0.05% liquidation buffer. Price paths use the chosen volatility with no directional drift. Liquidations between observations, actual execution constraints and on-chain constants are not reproduced. This is a scenario comparison, not a strategy forecast or a backtest. Queued profit is usable collateral but is not withdrawable cash.

LP changes with each row's settlements. Growing adds 50,000 USDC per minute; fluctuating adds a ±500,000 USDC sine wave. PAPER has no assigned cash value. Results do not enter your Paper Trail or public leaderboard.
