Hull MA Reversal Strategy

The Hull Moving Average responds quickly to price changes while remaining smooth. A change in its direction can foreshadow a short-term reversal. This strategy monitors consecutive Hull MA values and trades when the slope flips.

Testing indicates an average annual return of about 154%. It performs best in the stocks market.

When the moving average transitions from falling to rising, a long position is opened. A shift from rising to falling initiates a short. Risk is controlled using an ATR-based stop placed beyond the recent candle.

Exits rely on that protective stop, capturing a portion of the move that follows the momentum shift highlighted by the Hull MA.
