Perfect Overextension Reversal

How It Works
Bollinger Band Overextension- We calculate a standard 20‑period Bollinger Band (SMA +/– 2 SD). When price tears past the upper or lower band, we mark it as overbought or oversold—a classic sign that momentum may have gone too far.

Volume Confirmation- We track a 20‑period volume average. A reversal candle only counts if it’s sizable (body ≥ ATR), and its volume is at least 1.5× the average. Big move, big volume—more reliable reversal setup.

Reversal Candle Entry• Long after an oversold condition and a bullish candle that meets the size + volume tests.• Short after overbought and a bearish candle with the same criteria.

How to Trade the Signal

My advice is don’t rush in immediately. Take the signals to mean more that price is slowing down from the crazy action, when it is volatile at the beginning price can whipsaw. Wait for initial volatility to calm down and then look for a confirmation entry. For example, wait for a fast MA to cross a slower MA before entering. Manage risk well and place your stop just beyond the recent swing high/low. Target a 1.5×–2× reward: risk or trail your profit once the market gives you a second confirmation or cover your stop loss once price is clear of your entry and let the trade run.

Timeframes & Markets- This works on any chart however as the signals are a rare occurrence so you will get more entries on the lower timeframes.

happy trading :)
