Yes Brother,
I have backtested the strategy although not for 5 years but last 3 years.
Problem is that the nature of this strategy is such that it can't be coded for programmed backtesting so i had to do it manually which gave 70% success ratio with R:R of 1:2.
I even traded it on paper for 3 months which resulted in whopping 80% success ratio, i had planned for 6 months paper trading but overjoyed by the success my mind started playing games i thought with this kind of success ratio & R:R even if i'l make few mistakes then also i should be in good profits & it really started well i had 4 consecutive profitable trades and then downward journey started again.
You are right scared money trading could be one of the reasons as a result of losing money for a long time, i am little scared to get into right trades psychologically.
Thanks.
