There is a moment in every volatile stock when chaos gives way to calm — when the daily swings narrow, the noise quiets, and the market seems to pause before its next move. For a trader paying attention, that moment is not a warning sign. It is an invitation.
This is the core idea behind the Bull Power Squeeze strategy tested here on Airbnb (ABNB), the short-term rental platform that went public in December 2020 at one of the most euphoric IPO moments in recent memory. The backtest covers December 2020 through December 2025–5 years that included a post-IPO mania, a brutal growth-stock selloff, and a long grinding recovery. It is, in other words, an honest test.
