Parabolic SAR

How this strategy trades, what it scored, and the measurements the score was read from — every symbol and timeframe, on real and resampled history.

  1. Track the parabolic stop from each bar's high and low: it trails below price while the trend is up, creeping closer every bar and faster with each new high.
  2. Buy when the close is above the stop — the trend has flipped up and the stop has moved beneath price to trail it.
  3. Sell when the close falls back through the stop. Because the stop accelerates, a long-running trend gets stopped out on a much smaller pullback than a young one would.
