What the numbers say

On PG, the Daily RSI + Weekly Trend Filter trailed buy-and-hold over the five years through Nov 2026: +25.7% against +34.7% for simply holding — a gap of 9.1 percentage points. The strategy took 1 completed trade (1 profitable, 0 not), a 100% win rate — a small sample, so read this as a clue about the rule, not proof.

That came with a shallower worst stretch: the strategy's max drawdown was 15.5% versus 21.1% for buy-and-hold. Dollar-cost averaging into PG over the same window returned +16.9%. Best single trade: +25.7% (2025-12-08 to 2026-11-12); worst: +25.7% (2025-12-08 to 2026-11-12).

Computed by StratIQ's backtest engine on real daily prices through Nov 2026 (generated 2026-11-12). Fills are assumed at the close with a 5% stop-loss; slippage and commissions are not modeled. This is a historical study of a rule — not a pick, not a recommendation, and not financial advice.

A multi-timeframe filter: only buy Procter & Gamble (PG) on a daily RSI oversold signal (below 30) when the weekly trend is already bullish (50-week SMA above the 200-week SMA) — a short-term entry trigger gated by a longer-term trend confirmation, not just the daily signal alone. Sell when daily RSI rises back above 70.
