Daily MACD Signals Filtered by RSI, CCI, StochRSI, and a 200-Day Average

Article Strategy library · Author: ChaoZhang

Summary

This daily-chart strategy combines MACD crossovers with RSI, CCI, StochRSI, and a 200-day simple moving average. MACD provides the initial directional signal. The other indicators are used as overbought or oversold checks, while price relative to the moving average acts as a trend filter. A matching set of conditions triggers long or short trades, and the document describes closing positions when the opposite signal occurs.

The published parameter list includes common MACD settings and 14-period RSI and CCI lengths. The document provides a rule description and source, but no reported performance statistics or evidence that combining the indicators improves results. It notes that signals can lag, parameter choices can generate false signals, and long holding periods can expose positions to large drawdowns. The source’s conditions also warrant careful review: its StochRSI comparisons and CCI threshold construction do not straightforwardly match the prose’s overbought and oversold descriptions. Any evaluation should first reconcile those rules and test them on suitable daily data.

Key ideas

  • MACD crossovers supply the primary directional signal, with oscillators and a long-term average used as filters.
  • The strategy combines momentum and overbought or oversold conditions with the price’s position relative to a 200-day average.
  • Opposite signals are described as closing an existing position and opening one in the other direction.
  • The document warns about lag, false signals, parameter sensitivity, and drawdown exposure.
  • The source conditions should be checked against the prose before backtesting because some indicator rules appear inconsistent.
