RSI Extremes and Martingale Position Sizing in an Advisor

Summary

This trading advisor uses the Relative Strength Index to identify possible entries. It examines a configurable recent window of candles and buys when RSI reaches its minimum within that window, or sells when RSI reaches its maximum. Positions are closed at take-profit or stop-loss levels specified in points.

The advisor can also increase lot size during adverse reversals through an optional martingale feature, controlled by an activation setting and a multiplier. The document gives no details about the signal-filtering section, precise position-sizing rules, market or timeframe, or test results. It describes the strategy’s basic mechanics but does not establish profitability; the martingale feature can also increase exposure as losses accumulate.

Key ideas

• The advisor searches a configurable recent candle window for RSI extremes.
• It opens buys at local RSI minima and sells at local RSI maxima within that window.
• Take-profit and stop-loss settings determine when positions close.
• An optional martingale setting increases lot size during reversals, but no risk limits or performance evidence are provided.
