Backtest on real historical prices from Jun 23, 2026 to Oct 4, 2026: signals on completed bars, filled at the next bar's open, net of typical spread, commission and overnight financing. Past and backtested results are not a reliable indicator of future results. (Alpaca)
Methodology
- Buy a close below the lower band (20-bar mean − 1.5σ), sell short a close above the upper band.
- Exit when price returns to the moving average.
- Protective stop: exit if price moves 4× ATR(14) against the entry; no re-entry in the same direction until the signal flips.
- Trades both directions (long and short).
- Position size targets 12% annualised volatility (risk level 3/5), capped at 10:1 leverage per instrument. Costs: live bid/ask spread, commission and overnight financing.
