This strategy is just trading off of a 20 SMA.

The BBand MA is just a plain SMA at the period indicated by the BBand parameters.

A strategy like this is great for trending markets but you may want to consider a secondary form of market analysis to avoid choppy markets.

Being able to recognize + stay out of the market during times of sideways movement or predictable volatility is KEY for an SMA based trading system.

Have you tried combining an awareness of short term market cycles to validify bounces off your 20 SMA?
