Combining MACD, RSI, and Alligator Signals Across Timeframes
Summary
The document outlines an expert advisor that combines three indicators sampled on different timeframes. MACD on a five-minute chart supplies the trade signal, RSI on an hourly chart checks whether conditions are overbought or oversold, and the Alligator on a four-hour chart filters for trend direction. Together, the indicators are intended to align short-term signals with broader market context.
The advisor opens a position only when there are no existing open positions and the current time falls within a configurable trading window. The text explains the signal roles and basic entry constraints, but gives no exact indicator thresholds, exit logic, position sizing, tested results, or evidence that the combination is profitable. It is a strategy outline rather than a performance evaluation.
Key ideas
- MACD on a short timeframe generates the trade signal.
- Hourly RSI checks for overbought or oversold conditions.
- The four-hour Alligator indicator is used to assess the broader trend.
- A new position is allowed only when none is open and the configured time window is active.
- The description does not specify exits or report tested performance.
