This rule-based strategy demonstrates robust and consistent outperformance versus the Nifty 50 based on a 25-year backtest.

For the 2-year rolling CAGR, it delivers a mean return of 31% and a median return of 32%, far surpassing the Nifty’s 15% mean and 13% median.

The downside risk, measured as the volatility below a 15% minimum acceptable return (MAR), is nearly identical between the strategy and the Nifty at approximately 0.099, indicating that the strategy achieves superior returns without additional downside volatility.
