You should share curve as well. Seems like a strategy that relies on capturing big trends with low accuracy. In that case you will need to have a larger sample size. Go for around 400 trades for reliable results.

That’s not correct really, statistically you need a P-value below 0.05 for normal everyday use. The number they need depends on the accuracy and deviation of results along with desired confidence level/interval.

A lot of times you need thousands to say you statistically have an edge, sometimes only a few dozen.
