RSI-Gated DCA Strategy for Tokenized Stock Perpetuals

Summary

This strategy applies long-only dollar-cost averaging to a GOOGLUSDT perpetual contract. It opens a base position and adds equal-sized safety orders as price falls, with each successive order placed farther from the initial entry according to a rising step schedule. The position’s average entry is recalculated as orders accumulate.

A position closes only when price is at least 0.6% above that average and a 15-minute RSI crosses above 70; the RSI condition can be disabled. The script specifies 2x isolated leverage and has no stop loss, so a prolonged decline can leave a position open while the strategy waits for both exit conditions. The document reports a 3Commas backtest gain of $353.88, or 74.5%, over 169 days, but supplies no drawdown, trade count, or independent validation. The displayed test period and the configured date range also differ, which complicates replication. Fees and slippage are modeled, while live execution may differ from the chart strategy.

Key ideas

• Safety orders add to the long position at progressively wider price intervals below the base entry.
• Equal-sized safety orders increase position exposure without increasing each order’s size.
• The exit requires both a minimum gain over average entry and an RSI threshold cross.
• The strategy disables stop losses, leaving downside exposure if price does not recover.
• The reported backtest result lacks risk metrics and may not match the configured test dates.
