Multi-Timeframe RSI Ordering for Entries and Exits

Summary

This strategy compares 14-period RSI readings from 15-minute, 1-hour, and 4-hour charts. It enters long when the shorter-timeframe RSI readings are ordered from highest to lowest and the 4-hour RSI is above 30. It enters short when the 15-minute RSI is below the 1-hour reading, which is below the 4-hour reading, while the 4-hour RSI is under 70. Positions are closed when the 15-minute RSI moves across the 1-hour RSI in the opposing direction.

The document frames this ordering as a way to combine short-term momentum with broader context, but it reports no backtest outcomes. Published settings describe daily BTC/USDT futures trading with one-hour base data over about a year; the source requests the three RSI timeframes directly. The strategy has no explicit stop-loss rule. Its stated limitations include repeated crossovers in sideways markets, noise from short timeframes, and sensitivity to major news. Additional timeframes, signal filters, parameter evaluation, and stop losses are suggested for further study.

Key ideas

• The strategy compares RSI readings from 15-minute, 1-hour, and 4-hour charts.
• Long entries require ascending RSI values from the 4-hour through the 15-minute timeframe and a 4-hour reading above 30.
• Short entries require descending readings from the 4-hour through the 15-minute timeframe and a 4-hour RSI below 70.
• Crosses between the 15-minute and 1-hour RSI readings trigger position exits, with no separate stop loss specified.
