Fast RSI Switching with Candle Filters and Optional Martingale Sizing
Summary
Noro’s short-term strategy combines a fast RSI with candle direction, candle-body size, recent candle extremes, and an optional simple moving average filter. Its default RSI period is 7, with a stated limit of 30; the source builds several signal groups, including long entries associated with oversold readings and short entries associated with overbought readings. Opposing signals close existing positions before entering the other direction, while an RSI and candle-based condition can close trades. Martingale sizing is optional and disabled by default.
The document describes the approach as suitable for short timeframes and warns that choppy markets can generate repeated losses and that parameters vary by market. It recommends considering profit-taking, position controls, parameter tuning, and testing across instruments. Published settings cover a brief BTC/USDT futures sample at a 15-minute strategy interval, but no performance figures are supplied. The prose simplifies the signal logic, and the optional martingale feature can increase exposure after losing trades, so results would need careful independent evaluation.
Key ideas
- Fast RSI readings are combined with candle-based signal groups to enter positions.
- Candle bodies and recent highs or lows provide additional entry conditions.
- An SMA filter is optional, as is martingale position scaling.
- The source closes positions on opposing signals or an RSI-and-candle exit condition.
- The short published backtest window provides no reported performance results.
