GBP/USD
Yes, LFP trades GBP/USD. In the backtest from 2020/01 onward it took 828 trades, produced -0.5% of the basket’s total profit, and had a profit factor of 0.98 — ranking 10 of the basket’s 10 markets.
Sterling against the dollar is among the most traded currency pairs in the world, and it joined the LFP basket with the September 2026 build. It is traded on the daily chart, and each entry is split into several positions with staged targets; as each target is reached, the stop on the rest moves into profit. That is why its trade count in the markets table is larger than its number of entries.
This market in the backtest

What to know about this market
- It runs in every trading style.
- Plainly: in the default style’s (Brave) backtest this market lost a little in dollars (a profit factor under 1), yet it was positive in 2023 — the basket’s weak year — and in the basket tests it lowered the account’s overall drawdown. That is why it is in the basket.
- Because one entry is several positions, the risk is that one entry’s risk shared among them, not a multiple of it.
- This symbol is named differently at different brokers. The robot finds your broker’s own name for it by itself, 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.
