An RSI Overbought and Oversold Expert Advisor

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

The document outlines a basic automated strategy that buys when the Relative Strength Index is oversold and sells when it is overbought. It describes the logic at a high level and says the expert advisor can be used with MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5 after changing the file extension and compiling it in the platform’s editor.

The strategy is described as a customizable template generated by a visual strategy builder. The document does not specify RSI thresholds, trade sizing, stop or exit rules, markets, or backtest evidence. As a result, it explains the broad signal concept and deployment context but does not establish whether the strategy is profitable or suitable for live trading.
