Bollinger Band, RSI, and ADX Reversal Entry Signals

Article Strategy library · Author: ChaoZhang

Summary

This indicator combines Bollinger Bands, modified %B, RSI, and ADX to mark potential reversal entries. A long signal requires a candle low below the lower band, %B above its configured minimum, RSI within a specified range, and ADX above its strength threshold. A short signal mirrors this at the upper band, with RSI in its configured range and ADX above threshold. The defaults include a 9-period band, 14-period RSI and ADX settings, and a suggested three-minute use timeframe.

The author presents these as customizable settings and a personal preferred configuration, without reporting measured results or risk controls such as stops, sizing, or exits. Backtest metadata lists BTC/USDT futures over a limited period, with hourly strategy bars and a 15-minute base period, but no performance statistics. The signals should therefore be treated as entry ideas to evaluate, not evidence of a profitable complete trading system.

Key ideas

  • Long and short entries require price to extend beyond the corresponding Bollinger Band.
  • Modified %B and RSI ranges add conditions intended to identify potential reversals.
  • ADX above a minimum threshold filters for stronger directional movement.
  • The settings are customizable, and the author suggests a three-minute timeframe.
  • Backtest metadata is provided, but the document reports no outcome statistics or full exit rules.
