Mean reversion assumes that prices tend to return to their fundamental value after overreacting to news or sentiment. When a market spikes or drops sharply, wait for the initial volatility to settle, then assess whether the move was justified. If the fundamentals suggest a less extreme probability, take the opposite position.
This works best in high-liquidity markets where temporary supply/demand imbalances drive prices away from fair value. Patience is key — mean reversion trades may take time to play out. Set reasonable target prices and time horizons.
Combine with volume analysis to confirm when the overreaction is likely exhausting itself..
