RSI Value

Strategy that trades based on the Relative Strength Index (RSI) crossing a middle value.

The idea is to watch for the RSI to cross above or below a configurable level (default 50). When the indicator moves from below to above this level a long position is opened. When it crosses back below the level a short position is opened. Existing positions are exited on the opposite cross. Optional stop-loss, take-profit and trailing stop protect the trade.

Details

  • Entry Criteria: Buy when RSI crosses above the level. Sell when RSI crosses below.
  • Long/Short: Both directions.
  • Exit Criteria: Opposite cross or trailing stop.
  • Stops: Optional fixed stop-loss, take-profit and trailing stop.
  • Default Values:
    • RsiPeriod = 14
    • RsiLevel = 50
    • StopLoss = 100
    • TakeProfit = 200
    • TrailingStop = 0
    • CandleType = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5)
  • Filters:
    • Category: Oscillator
    • Direction: Both
    • Indicators: RSI
    • Stops: Yes
    • Complexity: Basic
    • Timeframe: Intraday (5m)
    • Seasonality: No
    • Neural Networks: No
    • Divergence: No
    • Risk Level: Medium
