Combining RSI, Seven Down Sessions, and a High-Volume Upswing Trigger

Summary

This Chinese stock-selection article proposes combining an RSI reading below 65 with seven consecutive sessions in which the close is below the open, followed by a strong upward move on elevated volume. It describes the final condition as a close near the top of the day’s range and volume at least twice its five-day average. The intended setup pairs a sequence of weakness with a possible trend acceleration, while the RSI threshold is presented as a way to avoid stocks considered overbought.

The document supplies indicator definitions and sample screening code, but no backtest, trade list, or performance results. Its explanation is internally inconsistent: the prose says seven down sessions are required, while the code continues past stocks meeting that condition, effectively excluding them. The article also acknowledges that the upswing trigger is subjective and may catch false breakouts. It suggests testing RSI parameters, adding other indicators and fundamental checks, and considering broader market conditions; these proposals are not validated in the document.

Key ideas

• The proposed screen combines RSI below 65 with a seven-session declining candle pattern and a high-volume upward move.
• The upswing condition uses a close near the daily high and volume at least twice the five-day average.
• The sample code appears to reject stocks that meet the seven-session decline condition, contrary to the written rule.
• The author flags subjective trend judgments and false breakouts as risks.
• The article provides no evidence from a backtest or live results.
