An RSI-Derived Supertrend Line for Entries and Stops

Summary

This indicator transforms RSI thresholds into a price-overlay line intended to move around the market price like a supertrend. It uses a 14-period RSI basis and upper and lower limits of 90 and 10, respectively. The described use is to generate entry signals or provide a reference for stop placement. The accompanying formula estimates upper and lower price levels from exponentially averaged positive and negative price changes, then plots their midpoint.

The document offers an implementation but no trading rules for interpreting line crossings, no market or asset class, and no tests of entry or stop performance. It does not explain position sizing, parameter selection, or how the line behaves in different market regimes. As a result, it is best understood as an indicator construction note rather than a complete strategy or evidence that the signals improve results.

Key ideas

• The indicator maps RSI thresholds into a line plotted over price.
• Its stated settings use a 14-period basis with upper and lower limits of 90 and 10.
• The midpoint of calculated upper and lower levels forms the plotted line.
• The proposed uses are entry signals and a stop reference.
• The document supplies no trading evaluation, market context, or parameter robustness evidence.
