Regole d'ingresso
- Enter long when close crosses above the 20-bar SMA.
- 4-bar cooldown after exit reduces back-to-back whipsaws.
- Short on an EQH sweep — the stop-hunt fades and sellers step in.
- Long on an EQL sweep.
Regole di uscita
- Close on a cross back below the SMA.
- Trailing 5% stop catches deeper retracements before the SMA flips.
- Opposite-direction sweep closes the trade — that's the next liquidity event.
- 4% trailing stop, 3-bar cooldown.
Comportamento atteso
Trendy growth in directional regimes punctuated by ugly chop when price oscillates around the SMA. Best paired with a higher-timeframe trend filter to skip the chop.
Range-friendly. Frequent small trades when price oscillates between equal-highs and equal-lows pools; can stack losses in strong trends that take out structure cleanly without reversing.
