What happened
A synthetic 100-tick scenario simulating ETH reacting to a bearish geopolitical news
shock. Price holds near $3,500 for the first 30 seconds, then a tariff headline lands
and the market crashes 15% over the next minute before a partial recovery.
What this tests
- Reading bearish news and reducing exposure
- Avoiding the temptation to "buy the dip" too aggressively
- Closing flat by the final tick for clean realized PnL
