Adéquation au marché
Volatility expansion
Filtered, selective
Règles d'entrée
- Enter long when close crosses above the upper Bollinger band.
- Single position at a time; 3-bar cooldown after exit.
- MACD line crosses above signal AND
- ADX(14) is above 20 — there's a real trend, not just chop.
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.
- MACD line crosses below signal.
- Hard 4% stop; 3% trailing stop locks in winners.
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.
Trades less frequently than vanilla MACD because the ADX gate sits open only in directional regimes. Equity curve is flatter through chop and adds when a sustained trend kicks in.
