Fibonacci-Level and RSI Reversal Signals with Percentage Exits

Summary

This reversal strategy combines a stated Fibonacci retracement area with RSI thresholds. It describes buying when the close crosses above a lower Fibonacci area while RSI is below 30, and selling when the close crosses below an upper area while RSI is above 70. Entries are made at market, with take-profit and stop-loss levels set as percentages of the position’s average price. The described RSI period is 14, and both exit percentages default to 1%.

The document provides no performance evidence; its published settings cover BTC/USDT futures over one month in late 2023. There is a major mismatch between the stated method and the code: the code defines its so-called Fibonacci levels as the current bar’s high or low multiplied by factors based on 0.618, and its entry conditions are threshold comparisons rather than the stated crosses. The prose also recommends larger-timeframe trend checks and warns that a reversal may fail or take a long time. These discrepancies and the absence of reported results make the strategy description insufficient to validate its behavior.

Key ideas

• The prose combines Fibonacci areas with RSI overbought and oversold readings to seek reversals.
• The described entries use RSI thresholds of 30 and 70, with percentage-based profit and loss exits.
• The published backtest settings specify BTC/USDT futures over one month, but provide no results.
• The code’s level calculations and entry conditions do not match the stated Fibonacci-cross description.
• Failed or delayed reversals can cause losses, and broader trend context is suggested as a filter.
