Hang Seng RSI Reversal Entries with an ATR Activity Filter

Summary

This one-hour Hang Seng strategy uses RSI thresholds to enter long or short positions, with an ATR-based filter that requires volatility relative to price to exceed a set level. It also restricts entries to a specified UK-time window and disables order accumulation. The example sets fixed profit-target and loss-stop distances.

The document says results were attached from walk-forward analysis with one out-of-sample period and describes the variables as optimization candidates. It provides no performance figures, test dates, market-cost assumptions, or details about how the optimization was conducted, so the claim of robustness cannot be assessed from the text alone. RSI extremes can also signal continued momentum rather than a reversal, and the document does not explain position sizing or how the fixed exits are calibrated.

Key ideas

• RSI readings below a threshold trigger short entries, while readings above the corresponding upper threshold trigger long entries.
• An ATR-to-price measure filters out periods with insufficient volatility.
• Entries are limited to a defined UK-time window, and order accumulation is disabled.
• The example uses fixed profit and loss exits, but gives no calibration rationale.
• The claimed walk-forward evidence includes only one out-of-sample period, with no performance details in the text.
