🧠 What is Mean Reversion?

The Mean Reversion Effect refers to a well-observed market tendency:
📊 Stock indices like DAX, Dow Jones, and Nasdaq tend to revert to their average levels after extreme price movements.

👉 Example:
If the Dow Jones rallies rapidly, there is a statistically increased probability of a correction toward its moving average. This isn’t mere coincidence — markets often “normalize” after emotional spikes.

🔄 Why Does It Happen?

The core of mean reversion lies in negative autocorrelation —
🔁 Strong upward or downward price moves often lead to an opposing move shortly after.

This contradicts the Efficient Market Hypothesis, suggesting instead that markets remember, overreact, and correct.

📈 How Mean Reversion Applies to DAX, Dow & Nasdaq

Indices tend to:

🕰️ Trade in mean-reverting phases between trends

📌 Return to key moving averages like the EMA 20 or VWAP

📊 Normalize quickly after volatility spikes (e.g., economic news)

This makes mean reversion particularly effective for short-term index traders.

🔍 How to Spot Mean Reversion Opportunities

Look for:

Price stretched far from a key moving average

Overbought/Oversold readings via RSI, Stochastic, or Bollinger Bands

Reversal candles or divergence signals near extremes

Slowdown of momentum after a strong move

💡 Strategy: How to Trade It

Mean Reversion strategies work best in sideways or low-trend conditions.

✅ Long Setup: Nasdaq is oversold, far below EMA 20, forming a bullish reversal and approaching a support zone

✅ Short Setup: DAX is overbought, hitting a resistance box with fading momentum, showing signs of reversal
