Does Parabolic SAR flip actually work on UBER? We tested it

This strategy made money overall, returning 67%, but the ride was very lumpy. The worst stretch was a brutal 31% drawdown that lasted a full year, from early 2024 into early 2025, which is where it hurt the most. The entry timing is doing the heavy lifting here, since the real entries beat 83% of random entry runs, meaning the exits are not the main source of profit. The edge was not consistent across all periods, as the strategy was profitable in only 3 out of 4 walk forward test periods, so the result came from a few strong stretches rather than steady performance. With 43 trades and a win rate just under 49%, the profit was not driven by just a handful of big winners, but the long drawdown shows the strategy can stay underwater for a long time.
