Overview

This strategy uses moving average theory to build a grid trading system by judging the market trend through multiple sets of JMA moving averages with different parameters. It aims to capture profits during long-term trend reversals in the market.

Strategy Logic

  1. Use a combination of 1-20 period JMA moving averages to determine the market trend. When the short period MA is above the long period MA, it is judged as an upward trend, and vice versa as a downward trend.

  2. Open grid trades at trend reversal points, when the short MA crosses below or above the long MA. Establish short positions gradually during uptrends, and long positions during downtrends.

  3. An option to filter based on candlestick color - only buy on red candles and sell on green candles, otherwise disregard color and trade at trend reversal only.

  4. Exits are either tracking stop loss or time-based exit when strategy duration ends.

Advantage Analysis

  1. Using MA system to determine trends can effectively identify long-term trend reversals.

  2. Grid trading can capture profits from range-bound markets without clear trends, with stop loss to control risks.

  3. Customizable JMA parameters, can optimize for different periods, high flexibility.

  4. Candle filter avoids being misled by false breakouts.

Risk Analysis

  1. High whip saw markets without clear trends have higher stop loss risks.

  2. Judgment errors from MA system may lead to incorrect trade signals.

  3. Candle filter risks missing some trading opportunities.

  4. If grid spacing is too wide, insufficient profits; too narrow may result in too many positions and high costs.

Optimization Directions

  1. Test more parameter combinations to find optimal JMA MA combinations for different products.

  2. Incorporate other filters like BOLL bands, KD etc to improve signal quality.

  3. Optimize grid configurations like grid spacing, entry lots etc.

  4. Consider more stop loss methods like gap based, trailing stops etc.

Conclusion

This strategy judges reversals using JMA theory and opens grid trades at turning points to capture profits from long-term trend shifts. Performance can be further improved through parameter optimization. Overall it is suitable for medium-long term holdings to gradually track and profit from trending moves.
