Based on the 'Quality Companies in an Uptrand' strategy introduced by Chris Cain, 22 Nov 2019
adapted and recoded by Jonathon Tzu and Peter Guenther

I/O(in & out part)
Option 1: The In & Out algo
Based on the 'In & Out' strategy introduced by Peter Guenther, 4 Oct 2020
expanded/inspired by Tentor Testivis, Dan Whitnable (Quantopian), Vladimir, Thomas Chang, 
Mateusz Pulka, Derek Melchin (QuantConnect), Nathan Swenson, Goldie Yalamanchi, and Sudip Sil

https://www.quantconnect.com/forum/discussion/9597/the-in-amp-out-strategy-continued-from-quantopian/p1

Option 2: The Distilled Bear in & out algo
based on Dan Whitnable's 22 Oct 2020 algo on Quantopian. 
Dan's original notes:
"This is based on Peter Guenther great “In & Out” algo.
Included Tentor Testivis recommendation to use volatility adaptive calculation of WAIT_DAYS and RET.
Included Vladimir's ideas to eliminate fixed constants
Help from Thomas Chang"
