Combining Stochastic RSI, RSI, Williams Vix Fix, and DMI

Summary

This document describes a collection of technical indicators: Stochastic RSI, RSI, a stochastic-and-RSI signal combination, Williams Vix Fix, and the Directional Movement Index. Their intended roles span overbought and oversold detection, potential volatility-related reversals, and trend direction or strength. It presents the system as a way to combine signals rather than rely on one indicator, and lists configurable smoothing, lookback, threshold, and DMI settings.

The proposed benefits are broader signal coverage and a trend-strength check, while the cautions include overlapping indicators, conflicting signals, parameter sensitivity, and uncertain long-term robustness. The text offers no measured results despite publishing a short BTC-USDT futures test window. The source mainly calculates and plots indicators; its entry rules are limited to a stochastic-and-RSI setup, and the described Williams Vix Fix and DMI do not appear to filter those entries. The strategy’s actual behavior therefore does not fully match the broad multi-factor explanation, and would need careful validation.

Key ideas

• The indicator set combines overbought and oversold measures with reversal and trend-strength measures.
• Stochastic RSI applies stochastic calculations to RSI values rather than directly to price.
• The source code's entries use stochastic and RSI conditions, while other indicators are calculated separately.
• Redundant signals, conflicting directions, and parameter sensitivity complicate evaluation.
• No performance results establish that the combined system is robust.
