Filtering Intraday Signals with VWAP, Fibonacci, RSI, and SMA

Summary

This intraday signal system combines RSI, Fibonacci retracement levels, VWAP, and a short simple moving average. The described RSI entries occur as RSI crosses out of an extreme, while price must be within a Fibonacci band and on the appropriate side of VWAP. The strategy also allows close-to-SMA crossovers to trigger entries independently, so the narrative’s filters do not apply to every signal path in the supplied logic.

The document gives default indicator settings and a backtest configuration for ETH/USDT on a daily period spanning late January to February 2025, but provides no performance statistics or other evidence of effectiveness. It cautions that layered conditions can miss fast moves, RSI and SMA may lag, Fibonacci levels depend on historical ranges, and VWAP meaning varies by timeframe. It also notes the need for stop-loss rules, though no such exit is specified in the described implementation. The source’s stated intraday framing should therefore be read alongside its daily backtest settings.

Key ideas

• RSI signals are filtered by a Fibonacci price band and the price’s position relative to VWAP.
• The strategy also allows price crossing the SMA to trigger entries separately.
• The written description calls for timeframe-sensitive interpretation of VWAP and historical Fibonacci ranges.
• The supplied backtest settings use daily data despite the strategy’s intraday framing.
• No performance figures or stop-loss implementation are reported.
