options strategy bear regime

In RANGE_BOUND markets (VIX ~20, SPY near 50MA), long call momentum screens (RSI 40-72, above 50MA, positive mom) miss the only reliable setup: oversold bounces at RSI 25-50. Filtering RSI < 40 makes all mean-reversion candidates invisible. Switch to RSI 25-50 + 40-60 DTE in RANGE_BOUND for bounce recovery time.
