Topic: MA-Bollinger band crossover strategies
Posted: Sunday, January 25, 2009 12:24:06 PM
The Jan 2009 issue of Technical Analysis of Stock & Commodities, Join the Band, describes MA-Bollinger band crossover strategies to alleviate whipsaws of a simple MA-MA crossover system.

The simplest system uses a MA(20) crossover above the upper band of the BB(50,0.8) to indicate a buy and a crossover below the lower band to indicate a sell.

In a bull market, a cross above the lower band could indicate a buy, while a cross below the center MA of the BB can indicate a sell in a bear market.

Can these type of strategies be implemented and backtested in StockFinder?

Thanks,

Can this strategy be back tested in StockFinder?  If so, what are the limitations on back testing?

Thanks
