Mean-Reversion Swing Trading Strategy v1 

EUR/USDOANDA

Descripción

A port of the TradeStation EasyLanguage code for a mean-revision strategy described at
traders.com/Documentation/FEEDbk_docs/2017/01/TradersTips.html

"In “Mean-Reversion Swing Trading,” which appeared in the December 2016 issue of STOCKS & COMMODITIES, author Ken Calhoun
describes a trading methodology where the trader attempts to enter an existing trend after there has been a pullback.
He suggests looking for 50% pullbacks in strong trends and waiting for price to move back in the direction of the trend
before entering the trade."

Strategy invests 100K and places 181 trades on the 1h timeframe from January 2016 to April 2018, netting $300 total.
Negative 6.4 Sharpe Ratio
Savings accounts bear more interest and less drawdown, even with today's rates.

Thanks for porting the code anyway, could be useful in some way other than using the direct strategy itself.
