Dual CCI and RSI Filters for Moving Average Momentum Signals

Summary

This BTC futures strategy combines an 8-period EMA and 26-period SMA crossover with momentum and oscillator filters. A long signal requires the EMA to cross above the SMA, the SMA’s five-period momentum to be positive, both 34- and 55-period CCIs to exceed zero, and the 26-period RSI to be above 48. The short setup applies the inverse conditions, including negative SMA momentum and RSI below 48.

The document explains the rationale for combining faster and slower CCI readings with RSI to screen crossover signals, and identifies false breakouts and delayed or missed entries as risks. It also suggests testing alternative indicator periods and thresholds and adding a stop loss. Published settings specify BTC_USDT on Binance futures over roughly one year, but no performance statistics are provided. The claims that multiple filters improve reliability are therefore an explanation of the intended design, not evidence of measured results; parameter choices may also need testing across market conditions.

Key ideas

• The long setup requires an upward EMA-SMA crossover, positive five-period SMA momentum, both CCIs above zero, and RSI above 48.
• The short setup reverses the crossover, momentum, CCI, and RSI conditions.
• The slower and faster CCI periods are intended to provide confirmation at different speeds.
• Multiple filters can delay entries or exclude strong moves, while crossovers can still produce false signals.
• The document proposes parameter testing and adding a stop loss but reports no performance results.
