RGT RSI Bollinger Strategy
This strategy combines the Relative Strength Index (RSI) with Bollinger Bands to spot mean-reversion opportunities. A long position is opened when RSI indicates an oversold market and price trades below the lower Bollinger Band. A short position is entered when RSI shows an overbought market and price rises above the upper band. The strategy applies an initial stop-loss and later trails the stop once a minimum profit is reached.
The trailing stop locks in profits by following price at a fixed distance once the trade moves favorably. Positions are closed when the trailing stop is hit.
Details
- Entry Criteria: RSI below
RsiLowand price under lower band for longs; RSI aboveRsiHighand price above upper band for shorts. - Long/Short: Both directions.
- Exit Criteria: Trailing stop hit.
- Stops: Initial stop-loss and trailing stop.
- Default Values:
RsiPeriod= 8RsiHigh= 90RsiLow= 10StopLossPips= 70TrailingStopPips= 35MinProfitPips= 30Volume= 1CandleType= TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5)
- Filters:
- Category: Mean Reversion
- Direction: Both
- Indicators: RSI, Bollinger Bands
- Stops: Yes
- Complexity: Beginner
- Timeframe: Intraday
- Seasonality: No
- Neural Networks: No
- Divergence: No
- Risk Level: Medium
