Parabolic SAR Early Buy MA Exit Strategy

This strategy trades Parabolic SAR reversals and exits long positions early when SAR flips above price and the close is below an N-period moving average.

Details

  • Entry Criteria:
    • Price crossing Parabolic SAR.
  • Long/Short: Both.
  • Exit Criteria:
    • For long positions: SAR above price and close below MA (MaPeriod).
    • For short positions: opposite SAR crossover (handled by entry logic).
  • Stops: None.
  • Default Values:
    • SarStart = 0.02
    • SarIncrement = 0.02
    • SarMax = 0.2
    • MaPeriod = 11
  • Filters:
    • Category: Trend following
    • Direction: Long & Short
    • Indicators: Parabolic SAR, SMA
    • Stops: No
    • Complexity: Low
    • Timeframe: Any
