SO quite over here :ohmy:
recently i was searching the net for trend following ideas and channel breakout to be specific, I came across one idea that is based on linear regression channel.
so instead of the the moving average the linear regression curve is used and the upper and lower channels are based on x ATRs away from it.
So i took the idea and added some touches and flavors to it and I could not make it a system that I will trade, but i managed to make it a mean reversion system.
The idea behind using the linear regression instead of moving average is to remove the lagging that exits in the moving average.
Anyhow here are the rules:
To stay aligned with the previous systems the following are not changed:
[ol]
[li]Index filter based on 50 days simple moving average[/li]
[li]minimum volume of 500K[/li]
[li]the close should be above the 100 days MA[/li]
[li]the close should be bellow the 5 days MA[/li]
[li]linear regression duration 20 days[/li]
[li]the bottom channel is 2.5* ATR(20) from the linear regression line[/li]
[li]Close bellow the Linear regression line[/li]
[li]Entry price is the lower channel[/li]
[li]Exit one profitable close (in the beginning I tested with close above the linear regression line)[/li]
