A few months ago, I was listening to an episode of Top Traders Unplugged and the participants were discussing trend following systems and made mention of the 40-in/20-out trading system. I did some digging and found the source, the 40in20out website.
For this trading system, I will be using Perry Kaufman’s Efficiency Ratio (ER), an indicator designed to show the ‘trendiness’ of an instrument, or lack of it.
Several weeks ago, I presented a scalping idea: SAT2021-09 Moderate Scalp 1 . That idea was to take a trade with a small profit target, based on the position of the Kaufman’s Adaptive Moving Average (KAMA) within a bar. This idea is a variation of that idea.
This idea is another mean-reversion system, based on work of Larry Connors and Cesar Alvarez.
