A Scored Crypto Reversal Strategy Using RSI, Bollinger Bands, HMA, and OBV

Summary

This short-term crypto strategy scores possible long and short reversals using RSI, Bollinger Bands, Hull moving average positioning, OBV moving-average direction, and an ATR-based volatility condition. Each side can qualify when its score reaches four of five conditions. The listed rules include RSI thresholds of 40 and 60, 20-period Bollinger Bands at two standard deviations, and fixed take-profit and stop-loss distances of 0.8% and 0.6%. Signals can close and reverse an opposing position.

The document provides indicator rules and published test settings for BNB/USDT futures on Binance from June 6 to 25, 2025, on three-hour bars. It reports no performance figures. There is a notable mismatch between the description of a strategy designed for one-minute charts and the three-hour test settings. The claims that the fixed parameters are optimized and that historical performance was good are unsupported by results in the document. It also acknowledges exposure to fees, slippage, noise, fixed-parameter risk, and losses when fading strong trends.

Key ideas

• The strategy combines five indicator conditions into a directional score.
• A signal requires at least four conditions for that direction.
• The stated exits use fixed percentage targets and stops.
• Published test settings use three-hour BNB/USDT futures bars despite the one-minute design description.
• No performance results are supplied, and trading costs and trend continuation are key risks.
