There appears to be (on average) slightly more 1 (forward steps) than -1 (backward steps) in A283131: the partial sums keep slowly increasing (as a global trend), though non-monotically.
The average (from 1 to n) of the partial sums keeps increasing (as a global trend), though non-monotically. Furthermore, it appears that the average (from 1 to n) of partial sums is always positive.
Average (from 1 to n) of the partial sums:
1 to 10000: 2.674
1 to 20000: 5.908
1 to 30000: 8.866
1 to 40000: 9.1975
1 to 50000: 10.511
Those averages seem to be asymptotic to some strictly increasing concave [yet unknown] function.
The first negative partial sum is a(103) = -1.
