Buy at an Extreme Low Point for Amibroker (AFL)

Based on an idea by Nat Stewart in Active Trader Magazine, December 2012:
The Low Close Edge
Stewart presented several different versions of the low-close strategy in the article, but I generalized it for this snippet of a trading program.
The concept is simple: buy the stock when it closes in the bottom NperIn% of its daily range,
AND in the bottom NperIn% of its LookBackIn day range.
When it closes in the top NperOut% of its daily range
AND in the top NperOut% of its LookBackOut day range, liquidate the position and return to cash.

Interesting approach . . . when I added my standard optimization, walk-forward and stop loss routines the approach, it provided a better than 30% annualized return for a 2 month train, 2 month step walk-forward 2011 – 2012 against a 3 position portfolio of the current IBD Top Fifty.

Unusual was the overall return . . . of the 464/848 trades all were long, average days held were 2.22, maximum trade % draw-down -17%, maximum system % draw-down -18%.

I consider better than 30% annual return on out-of-sample test, outstanding. Good work. by grace, RBuck
