đ âBuy low, sell highâ sounds simple, right? Thatâs basically Mean Reversion in disguise.
Mean Reversion is the idea that prices eventually return to their historical average. Whether itâs a token, a stock, or even volatilityâif it strays too far from the norm, traders start betting itâll snap back like a rubber band.
Why does this matter?
Because markets overreact. Fear and FOMO push prices to extremes. Mean reversion gives traders a framework to spot opportunities when things look too hotâor too cheap.
Itâs not a crystal ball, though. Some assets never bounce back. Others redefine their âmeanâ entirely.
So the real skill?
Knowing when a dip is just noiseâand when itâs the start of a collapse.
Do you use mean reversion in your tradesâor are you more of a trend follower?
