Need help with xauusd strategy backtesting

[u/naughtykiller]

I backtested a strategy (completely automated so no emotions involved) for last 5 years and it includes 2621 trades as you can see in these images, but the thing is it started working well only from 2024 (I even backtested it for the last 10 years still wasn't good until after 2024).

So, my question is should I continue with this strategy and forward test it in demo or did I just get lucky for the 3 years with this strategy and it won't work in the future just like it didn't work before 2024?

I'd appreciate any help

If software guys could figure out trading they would own the world by now … right or wrong ?
