Note

Pro Tip: When building strategies in Reversion, put your primary signal in the Required group and confirmation signals in Optional. This ensures the core signal must always be present while allowing flexibility in confirmation. Always backtest parameters per asset — crypto often benefits from adjusted settings due to higher volatility.
