BONK Multi-Factor Strategy with EMA, MACD, RSI, and Volume

Summary

This BONK-focused strategy combines trend, momentum, oscillator, and volume signals. It buys when the 9-period EMA crosses above the 20-period EMA, MACD is above its signal line, RSI is below 70, and volume exceeds its 20-period average. It sells under the converse EMA and MACD conditions when RSI is above 30 and volume is elevated. The description specifies five-percent stop and target levels for both long and short trades.

The accompanying settings identify a BTC/USDT futures test spanning May 2023 to May 2024, using hourly base data, but no returns or other outcome measures are reported. The source code applies stop and limit parameters at the signal-time close, so the narrative’s characterization of these as protective exits should be interpreted cautiously. The document also flags overfitting, shifting market conditions, and trading costs. Proposed refinements include volatility-based exits, position sizing, and broader strategy combinations, none of which are evaluated in the supplied evidence.

Key ideas

• The entry conditions require agreement among EMA crossover, MACD direction, volume, and an RSI threshold.
• The strategy specifies fixed five-percent stop and target levels for long and short entries.
• The described BTC/USDT futures test covers a year with hourly base data but reports no performance measures.
• Stop and limit parameters are attached at entry in the source, which may not behave like later protective exits.
• Parameter overfitting, market shifts, and trading costs remain material limitations.
