Backtest a mean-reversion strategy on any stock that stretches above or below its moving average
Pick whether the ticker was above or below its moving average at entry.
Above MA shorts stretches up; Below MA buys stretches down.
The moving-average period the tool measures extension against. Shorter reacts faster; longer filters out noise.
How far from the moving average the ticker must be to trigger a trade — extension %.
Larger = rarer, deeper setups. Smaller = more trades, shallower stretches.
Computes the ticker's current % distance from the selected Moving Average using the latest close, sets that as the Extension, and re-runs the backtest.
Direction (above / below) is set automatically based on whether price is currently above or below the MA.
The percentage next to each MA is the ticker's current distance from that moving average.
Click a preset to find every historical day where that MA was at least as extended as today.
