PriceMomentum_V0766

ARCHIVEDhybrid

llmSimplified and de-duplicated entry momentum logic (ret_20d > 6%) and require either price above 200SMA or positive 50SMA slope; tightened cumret and vol_chg thresholds to improve robustness. Added multi-condition exit (short-term and medium-term drawdown, cross below SMA50, and drawdown limit) to reduce large losses. Introduced regime gates to avoid high-volatility and bubble periods (allow only UPTREND/SIDEWAYS, LOW/MEDIUM volatility, NORMAL bubble). Added volatility-based position sizing (full size in low vol, half in higher vol) and reduced base_position to 60% to lower turnover and overfitting risk.

A robust strategy performs acceptably in most years rather than spectacularly in one — look for consistency across regimes, not a single outlier year.
