Regole d'ingresso
- Enter long when close crosses above the upper Bollinger band.
- Single position at a time; 3-bar cooldown after exit.
- MACD line crosses above its signal line AND
- Histogram is positive — momentum is widening, not contracting.
Regole di uscita
- 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 back below the signal line.
- Hard 4% stop; 3% trailing stop on the runner.
Comportamento atteso
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.
Slower than a pure EMA cross — fewer false starts, later entries. Equity curve shows fewer trades, smoother PnL, occasional missed early-trend acceleration.
