Reglas de entrada
- Enter long when close is below the lower Bollinger band — a 2σ stretch below the 20-bar mean.
- Single position; 3-bar cooldown after exit.
- Enter long when close crosses above the upper Bollinger band.
- Single position at a time; 3-bar cooldown after exit.
Reglas de salida
- Exit when close pushes back above the middle band.
- Hard 3% stop-loss; 2% trailing stop locks in any reversion gain.
- Close as soon as price slips back below the middle band (the 20-bar SMA).
- Trailing 4% stop on the runner so a failed breakout dies cheaply.
Comportamiento esperado
Smooth equity curve in low-volatility regimes with frequent small wins. Sharp drawdowns when a trend extends and price stays pinned below the lower band — the strategy expects mean reversion that may not arrive.
Lots of small chop with a handful of clean runs that come after periods of low realised volatility. Quiet markets feed the strategy with setups; the payoff is asymmetric — many small losses, few large wins.
