YFI/USD Update:
Closed all positions here and got flat.

This is tough one, but decided to discontinue my strategies in trading YFI. This market has been an absolute nightmare to trade for me.
Max directional exposure that I was using was 10% of my acc. (so if all strats were short, thats the same as me being short with 0.1x leverage)

My account hit 4.8% drawdown after closing everything out.
I had very limited data to work with and I was scared that I "might" have been overfitting. Decided to allocate tiny risk to the strat to give it a try anyway but it didn't work.
Was it a bad idea to turn this strategy on? No, I don't think so. I think it was a +EV decision because I had a solid idea of why it should work even tho I was working with a small data set.
Not every strat I turn on will end up being profitable. As long as I'm creating more profitable ones than losing ones, that's all that matters.

Taking this one on the chin, onto the next!
