LTC RSI Oversold Entries with a Doubling DCA Ladder

Summary

This long-only Litecoin strategy waits for two entry conditions: a 14-period RSI on the four-hour timeframe below 29 and a closing price below a configurable ceiling, set to $61 by default. It starts with a $1,000 base order and places up to four averaging orders at fixed declines of 2.5%, 5%, 10%, and 20% from the base entry. The order sizes double at each rung, from $2,000 to $16,000. A fixed take-profit level is set 35% above the average entry price; the described design has neither a trailing exit nor a stop loss.

The document presents this as an aggressive DCA framework, stating that all orders filled would deploy $31,000 against $100,000 initial capital. It warns that this is about 31% of equity per trade and suggests reducing order sizes to lower exposure. The material provides configuration details and a backtest window in the code, but no strategy-performance results. Fixed averaging levels can leave the position exposed to further declines after the ladder is exhausted, and the absence of a stop loss makes drawdown control a central limitation.

Key ideas

• The strategy opens long positions only when four-hour RSI is below 29 and price is under a configurable ceiling.
• It adds up to four orders at fixed declines from the base entry, with each order larger than the previous one.
• The default take-profit target is 35% above average entry, with no trailing exit or stop loss described.
• The stated maximum deployment is $31,000 against $100,000 initial capital, which the document characterizes as aggressive exposure.
