Hola, I'm pretty new to using quantopian and wanted to try and replicate the simple strategy described here: https://alvarezquanttrading.com/blog/simple-ideas-for-a-mean-reversion-strategy-with-good-results/
I'd really appreciate any feedback on the correctness or simplicity of the implementation of these rules.
For the period stated in the article above the returns/dd look quite consistent. My backtest is potentially a more realistic simulation since it actually simulates the limit orders, as opposed to doing a MC to select a random subset of the setups that meet the entry condition and averaging.
Interestingly, the strategy has completely broken down since and exhibits a 55% dd! Having a look at some tweaks to see if I can improve that.
Appreciate any ideas.
