What it does
It reads daily prices. It enters a position when all of the entry conditions below is true, and it leaves when its exit rule, its stop-loss or its time limit is reached.
Entry rule
All of these must be true on the same day:
- CCI(20) is below -100.
- The close is above the 100-day average.
Exit rule
It has no exit signal of its own. It leaves on a stop-loss 8% below the entry, or after 40 days at most.
The idea behind it
Mean-reversion rules buy a sharp dip, using an oversold reading or a stretch away from an average, often only while the longer-term trend is intact.
The bet it makes
It bets that a price stretched far from its usual level snaps back toward it.
When it tends to struggle
A stretched price can keep stretching. In a strong downtrend a dip is not a bargain, it is the trend, and a rule that keeps buying it can take repeated losses.
