According to the history of “Coppock Curve” a guy named as Edwin Coppock who was an economist, was requested by the Episcopal Church to produce a way to recognize cheap trade breaks for long-term investors.
Edwin Coppock thought for some time and resolute upon a hypothesis that evaluates a slump to the death of a loved one. He asked the Episcopal Church bishops for the span of a distinctive mourning period after a death, the bishop answer was 11 to 14 months. Then Edwin developed a calculation to conclude market bounce back.
