EUR/GBP
Yes, LFP trades EUR/GBP. In the backtest from 2020/01 onward it took 103 trades, produced 3.6% of the basket’s total profit, and had a profit factor of 1.38 — ranking 7 of the basket’s 8 markets.
Euro against sterling is the least volatile of the majors and behaves more like a mean-reverting market than a trending one. That is what makes it a complement to the basket’s volatile markets: when gold and the yen crosses go quiet, this one tends to work.

What to know about this market
- Low volatility means smaller stops, which makes the spread matter more relative to the move.
- Its main job in the basket is lowering correlation, not producing the most profit.
- This symbol is named differently at different brokers. Your dedicated build is made with your broker’s own name for it, and the free compatibility test checks it exists before you buy.
- Your broker sets the spread and swap on this market, not us. Those are what separate a live account from a backtest.
