RSI Strategy
Updated
This RSI strategy is different than most in that it doesn't pick a buy signal based on the RSI rising above a specific number (usually 30). Instead, it creates a 14 day exponential moving average of the Relative Strength Index and uses the following two conditions together to trigger a buy:
Entry conditions:
The reasoning behind condition 1 is that we are trying to buy into a rising trend, the moving average helps to confirm the trend, whereas the RSI rising above a specific number (usually 30) gives us no real indication that the asset will increase and produces less wins overall. The reasoning behind condition 2 is to avoid buying at the top of a climb.
Exit conditions:
The reasoning behind sell condition 1 is a falling RSI moving average (down trend starting). The close has to be under the trailing stop activation level, if we've triggered the trailing stop, we want the trailing stop to do it's job and not exit the trade until the trailing stop takes us out. The reasoning behind condition 3 is to not exit without at least some profit (user defined).
Entry conditions:
- Condition1: Rising of the RSI's moving average for (user defined) candles in a row
- Condition 2: The RSI is < 70

Exit conditions:
- Condition 1: The RSI moving average is falling
- Condition 2: Close < Trailing stop activation Level
- Condition 3: We have at least (user defined) % profit
