Dual-Timeframe MACD Reversal Signals with RVI and CCI

Summary

The strategy describes using a 6-hour MACD to define the broader direction and a 1-hour MACD to seek reversal entries. In an upward higher-timeframe trend, a lower-timeframe bearish crossover is treated as a possible pullback before an upward reversal. RVI below 0.2 and CCI below -95 are presented as oversold confirmations. The document also discusses stop losses, position sizing, testing other timeframe combinations, and adapting parameters to different markets.

The article supplies indicator settings and a backtest configuration for BTC/USDT futures, but reports no performance results. Its accompanying code does not cleanly match the written setup: it includes additional MACD and price-versus-stop conditions, and its combined RVI/CCI/MACD signal is not the sole entry rule. Treat the stated signal logic as a strategy proposal rather than evidence of profitability. The article notes false signals, parameter sensitivity, and the risk of stop losses that are either too tight or too loose.

Key ideas

• A 6-hour MACD is proposed for trend context, with a 1-hour MACD used to seek reversal entries.
• RVI below 0.2 and CCI below -95 are described as oversold confirmation conditions.
• The strategy discusses stop losses and smaller positions as ways to manage false signals.
• The published BTC/USDT futures configuration gives no performance results, and the source code differs from parts of the written rules.
