V. Conclusion
This article analyzed in detail the logic, strengths, weaknesses and optimization directions of the trend following strategy based on the distance between price and 200-day moving average. This strategy judges medium-long term trend by tracking the price deviation from long-term moving average. Positions are established when the deviation exceeds a threshold and closed when hitting stop loss or take profit targets. This strategy can track medium-long term trend well but still has some parameter optimization space. Future improvements can be made from multiple perspectives to make the strategy more robust across different market conditions.
