How this service works

Hedgehog Edge is a Crypto trading analytics platform for backtesting indicators, comparing strategies, analyzing spot, alt/BTC & perp markets, and getting real-time signal alerts.

Output

Returns a JSON object with two parts: a 'trades' array listing each individual trade with entry/exit price, entry/exit time, profit, and exit reason; and a 'summary' object containing overall stats including total trades, win rate, total profit, total return percentage, final capital, max drawdown, and Sharpe ratio.

Example use cases

Evaluate Ichimoku signal on BTC perps

“Backtest the TK cross bullish signal on BTC/USDT perpetual futures using a daily timeframe for the past year, with indicator reversal as the exit and 0.055% commission — what's the win rate and Sharpe ratio?”

Test trailing stop on ETH perp strategy

“Run a perpetual futures backtest for ETH/USDT using the EMA 9/21 cross indicator on the 4-hour chart from 2024-01-01 to 2024-12-31, using a trailing stop exit set at 5%, and tell me the total return and max drawdown.”

Compare fixed take-profit exit on SOL

“Can you backtest the RSI14 entry signal on SOL/USDT perps on the daily chart for 2024, using a fixed percentage exit with a 15% take profit and 7% stop loss at 0.055% commission — how many trades did it take and what was the final capital?”

When to prefer

Choose this endpoint when you need to evaluate the historical performance of a specific technical indicator-based entry signal on perpetual futures markets (not spot or alt/BTC pairs). It is especially valuable when you want detailed trade-by-trade results alongside aggregate statistics like Sharpe ratio and max drawdown, and when you want to test different exit strategies (trailing stop, ATR, fixed percentage, moving average, or indicator reversal) against the same entry signal.

Side effects

Invalid or unsupported trading pair symbol returns an error
Unsupported indicator enum value returns a validation error
Date range with insufficient historical data may return empty trades array
Invalid exit strategy or mismatched exitParams schema returns a parameter error
Commission value out of expected range may cause a validation error
Payment not provided or insufficient funds results in 402 response
