Backtest Hypothesis

The backtest strategy described is a mean-reversion setup triggered when the price crosses the lower Bollinger Band on the 15-minute chart, with a stop-loss placed at the recent swing high. A target is set at the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level. The strategy could be tested using the $0.67–$0.6773 pullback as a trigger zone, with the 50-period MA acting as a filter to avoid false signals during strong bearish momentum.
