Adéquation au marché

Volatility expansion

Strong directional trends

Règles d'entrée

Enter long when close crosses above the upper Bollinger band.
Single position at a time; 3-bar cooldown after exit.

Enter long the bar after EMA(12) crosses above EMA(26).
Cooldown of 2 bars after an exit prevents instant whipsaw re-entries.

Règles de sortie

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.

Close on the down-cross: EMA(12) back below EMA(26).
Trailing stop of 4% locks in profits if the cross reverses without a clean down-cross.

Comportement attendu

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.

Long flat periods broken by sharp upward jumps when a sustained trend lines up — and visible drawdowns during ranging markets when the cross fires both ways inside a few bars.
