The idea

A bot that buys Tesla when the trend looks strong and sells when it weakens, aiming for steady gains with less drama than just holding.

Wider TP/SL with return over 89% for 5 yrs (same as buy & hold) with 20% drawdown (much lower than how TESLA performed originally). Takes care of 2022 crash.

Design

How it works

  1. Watches for strong upward price movements before entering trades

  2. Avoids buying during market crashes or uncertain periods

  3. Exits positions when momentum fades to protect profits

  4. Uses multiple safety checks to avoid false signals

Conditions

Where it works, and where it doesn't

Every strategy is built for a particular kind of market. These are the conditions this one is designed around — and the ones it is not.

Built for

  • When Tesla is in a clear, steady uptrend over weeks or months
  • During periods of normal market activity without sudden shocks
  • When price moves are smooth and predictable, not erratic
  • After the bot confirms strength before committing money

Not built for

  • During sudden market crashes when everything drops fast
  • When prices bounce around sideways with no clear direction
  • During extreme volatility or unexpected news events
  • When the trend reverses sharply before the bot can exit

The Simulation Lab

Ten bad markets, before your money is in one.

Almost anything looks good in a rising market. That is not a test. So we put the strategies listed here through the same ten bad markets, and this one has been through them. They are stretches of real market history, with names and dates: the 2022 slump, the COVID crash, a year that went nowhere. We picked them before this strategy existed.

Two of them are below. Each one shows our drawing of what that market looked like, and the rules this strategy follows when a market like it turns up. None of this is a score. What actually happened to the strategy is in your dashboard, not on this page.

When markets fall

The Christmas 2018 Scare

A sudden drop, then a full recovery within months.

How we run it
Real trading days

A 20% fall into Christmas Eve 2018 on tightening fears, then a recovery to a new all-time high within four months. Anything that sold near the low and waited for confirmation missed it.

The rules this strategy follows here

  1. 1
    What it holds

    1 company.

  2. 2
    When it sells

    One of them drops 10% below the price it was bought at.

  3. 3
    What it does

    It sells that one. The rest carry on.

On two days here, the market opened far below where it closed the day before.

An order set to sell at 10% down can end up selling far below that. If the market opens below that price, there is no chance to sell at it. That is what this market is here to show, and why we keep it in the set.

When markets go nowhere

The Magnificent Seven Year

A handful of big names carried 2023; most stocks didn’t.

How we run it
Real trading days

The cap-weighted index rose 24% while the equal-weighted version managed under 12%: a handful of very large names carried almost the whole gain and the median stock did little.

The rules this strategy follows here

  1. 1
    What it holds

    1 company.

  2. 2
    When it sells

    One of them drops 10% below the price it was bought at.

  3. 3
    What it does

    It sells that one. The rest carry on.

No overnight drops in this market.

A market that ends where it started still charges you for every trade made inside it. This is where the cost of trading adds up fastest. That is why it sits in the set right next to the crash.

The Wild Swings of Late 2022

These ten are the whole set. We picked them for the damage they did — the fastest crash on record, a year that went nowhere, a grind that punished every rally — not for how they make anything look.

8 of these 10 can run on the real trading days of the time they name. We model the other 2 The Bull Run of 2016–17 and The Year That Went Nowhere. A strategy needs a stretch of history to warm up on before a test starts, and our price data does not go back far enough to give these that. So we built stand-ins that behave like those years, rather than replays of them. A modelled market is not a forecast, and it is not what would have happened. The shapes drawn above are our models of those markets — never this strategy — and they have no scale. The dates and index moves next to each one are the real figures for the period it is modelled on. Nothing on this page says how any strategy did in these tests.
