Backtesting Details
Backtesting generally refers to verifying "what the earnings results would have been if those trades had been executed in the past" using historical market data. For the AI, these simulations are repeated for the purposes of AI learning and evaluation, and the ROI is improving daily.

- Trading method: both buy and sell (long / short)
- Leverage: 1x
- Number of trades: a total of 48 trades over 3 years
- Fees: assumed and deducted a fee of 0.04% per trade
【Results】
The AI achieved a return rate approximately 3.4 times higher than the Bitcoin price, and the maximum drawdown was approximately 1/4.

Future Developments

KLab was founded as a research and development company for mobile software and subsequently grew primarily through its mobile game business. Starting from fiscal year 2025, the company has designated AI as one of its priority businesses and is proceeding with the research, development, and business consideration of numerous AI systems, including those not yet announced. The AI is one of these initiatives, and following the start of asset management using its own funds in 2026, the company aims for commercialization in 2027.
The AI targets financial products that circulate borderless (such as Bitcoin and foreign exchange), and the service provision will target countries worldwide. We will consider the countries where the service will be implemented by taking into account the regulatory legislation and marketing perspectives of each nation. We will continue to provide updates regarding the verification results and development progress of the AI.
