Double Moving Average Crossovers Filtered by ROC, RSI, and a Long-Term EMA

Summary

The strategy generates directional signals when a fast simple moving average crosses a slow one. It confirms long entries with positive rate of change, price above the 200-period EMA, and RSI above 55; short entries require negative rate of change, price below the long-term EMA, and RSI below 45. The listed fast and slow averages use periods of 9 and 21, while ROC and RSI each use 14. The description also presents chart triangles and ATR-based exits as parts of the approach.

The document gives a BTC/USDT futures backtest interval and settings, but no returns, trade counts, or other results. Its prose refers to a 200-day EMA, whereas the source uses a 200-bar EMA, and the stated ATR exit method does not clearly match the source's stop and profit parameters. Thus the specific exit behavior should be treated cautiously. The strategy also remains exposed to whipsaws in sideways markets, parameter overfitting, and losses during extreme market events; the document recommends testing across instruments and conditions.

Key ideas

• Fast and slow simple moving average crossings provide the initial long or short signal.
• ROC direction, RSI thresholds, and price relative to a 200-period EMA act as entry filters.
• The listed moving average periods are 9 and 21, with 14-period ROC and RSI inputs.
• The description proposes ATR-based risk exits, though the source's exit parameters are unclear.
• The published backtest configuration contains no performance evidence.
