Combining Multiple RMI Signals with the Chande Momentum Oscillator

Summary

This strategy combines five Relative Momentum Index signals with a Chande Momentum Oscillator. A long setup requires the oscillator to cross its buy threshold, four RMI readings to be below their buy lines, and a fifth RMI to be above its buy level. The short setup reverses those conditions: the oscillator crosses its sell threshold, four RMI readings are above their sell lines, and the fifth is below its sell level. The document describes the fifth RMI as an opposite-direction signal intended to help identify trends and support pyramiding.

Numerous lengths and thresholds are configurable, and the published settings specify BTC/USDT futures over one week of three-minute data, with one-minute base data. No trading performance is reported. The multi-indicator confirmation may reduce reliance on any single reading, but it also makes the rules complex, parameter-sensitive, and potentially infrequent. The document warns about false signals and market-regime differences; it does not detail stop-loss or position-sizing rules, though it recommends adding risk controls.

Key ideas

  • The strategy combines five RMI readings with a Chande Momentum Oscillator for entry signals.
  • Long and short entries require several RMI conditions and an oscillator threshold crossing to align.
  • The fifth RMI uses conditions opposite to the other RMI signals and is linked to pyramiding.
  • Many configurable indicator lengths and thresholds create substantial parameter sensitivity.
  • The published BTC/USDT futures settings include no performance statistics or detailed risk controls.
