There are so many simple basic systems that can give an edge. My first few profitable years were trading a 9/21 Ema cross with the ADX for confirmation. Was it optimal? No. Did it provide edge? Slightly. The real key is correct position sizing and risk management.

Sure, it all depends on your strategy.
For me, I don't do any kind of linear regression. My algo just combines some simple averages with and ADX, Bollinger Bands, and a compound VIX/VVIX measurement.

There are many different kinds of algos, some machine learning. In my opinion, machine learning algos are never sustainable and not worth the effort. Simple discretionary strategies with multiple sources of confluence provide the best opportunities.
To help you get started, learn some simple python and grab OHLCV data from an API. Each week, scan the market and determine if a symbol will rise above or below Monday's close by end of that Friday. This will help you slowly build up to anything you feel comfortable with. This will also let you transition to option strategies very easily.
Use a simple combination of MACD, ADX, and RSI on the 4H or 1D chart. This will help you see clear trends you can form strategies off of.

At the moment I'm mainly relying on ADX

For trend strength, you used ADX?
PS: I hope you took care of lookahead bias in your tests.

SPYI DRIP currently is nice. The 1259 status is also beneficial. Especially while I continue to earn a good income (while also continually investing in retirement accounts with employer matching in funds similar to VOO). I recently posted about this due to tax liabilities because of income+REIT dividends. I’ve sold many shares of REITs lately and bought SPYI and ADX as replacements.

Us ADX for the simulation ADX is a 100 year old fund that pays a yield of 8%. There is 40 years of data in computers that can be used for a simulation.

This is why it is important to have cash reserves that can be used so as to not sell at the worst times.
Note you don't even need to have cash reserves for twosrt times. If you have more dividend income than you need to cover living expenses you you will never need to sell in a market crash. For example if your liiivng expenses are 50K a year and you have 75K a year of income the market and your dividend would have to drop 60% The largest drops in the last 100 years was about 50%. Most recently in 2008 were the market briefly dropped to 50% in one year and then started to recover. Yes it did take about 3 years to fully recover but it did.
Examin the dividend history of your funds. If the fund payed out dividneds in in 2008 recession you could use that fund to help protect you in future recessions. Now ETF are new so most don't have a 20 year history But Closed End Funds (CEF) have been around for about 100 years. I have UTF and UTG bot payed out during the Market crash of 2008 with no dividned cuts. In fact both have a 20 year history of never cutting there dividend. ADX is a 100 year old CEF with a 8% yield .

I’d dump JEPI for something else tbh. Rather poor performance and not the greatest yield for a cc etf. I’d dump it for something like ADX or OVL.

Honestly GPIQ + ADX is probably the best combo out there. Long term NAV growth, payout goes up, mix of both uncapped and capped but catching most of it.
Obviously have to think about taxes but if thats no issue i like the combo the most
