2024-08-152026-07-05 · net of fees, slippage, and funding · one engine, one window, one cost model for every strategy — no cherry-picking.

The return column reflects each strategy’s own position sizing (some hold only a small slice of one coin), so Sharpe — which isn’t affected by leverage — is the fair way to rank them. 3 strategies that rank coins against each other (like funding carry and momentum ranking) can't run on a single asset, so they're left out.

Start from the closest — Supertrend

Nothing cleared our bar on SOL, but Supertrend came closest (Sharpe 0.83). Fork it and see if you can push it further — or run it as it is.

At $1,000, Supertrend's worst historical dip on SOL was about $98. Free account, your own keys — Keel only places the trades.

What this is: a single-asset backtest of 12 systematic strategies on SOL, on real Hyperliquid data, net of fees, slippage and funding. A high Sharpe on a low trade count is a small sample, not a promise. Where nothing clears the bar, we say so. Past performance does not predict future results, and this is not investment advice.

Questions

SOL strategy FAQ

What is the best trading strategy for SOL?

On SOL, no strategy clearly cleared our Sharpe 1.0 bar. The closest was Supertrend at Sharpe 0.83 — treat it as marginal, not a green light. We ran 12 single-asset strategies on SOL; the full leaderboard, including the ones that failed, is below.

How were these SOL strategies tested?

Each strategy was backtested on SOL alone, using its own position sizing, from 2024-08-15 to 2026-07-05 — net of fees, slippage and funding, on the same engine Keel uses to trade live. We rank by Sharpe, which isn't affected by leverage. The return column reflects each strategy's built-in sizing, so a cautious strategy can look smaller than a full-size position would.

Do any SOL strategies actually beat buy-and-hold?

No — on SOL, none of the 12 strategies we tested cleared the Sharpe 1.0 bar. We publish that verdict rather than hide it.
