RSI Threshold Entries with EMA Filters and Price-Based Exits

Summary

This strategy uses RSI threshold crossings to generate long and short entries, with a 200-period EMA and the prior daily close as additional conditions. The described long setup crosses above the lower RSI threshold while price is below both references; the short setup crosses below the upper threshold while price is above them. It also limits the number of open trades and tracks entry prices for exits based on price targets and other conditions.

The document includes adjustable parameters and published backtest settings for BTC perpetual futures over December 2023, using hourly bars with 15-minute base data. It offers no independently stated performance evidence. There are material caveats: the overview presents a simplified floating stop and take-profit explanation, while the source contains more complex exit conditions and separate logic for long and short trades. The source also flags reliability problems in a tracked price variable and says testing on other markets was not done. RSI lag and easily triggered price levels are further risks.

Key ideas

• RSI threshold crossings are combined with a 200-period EMA and prior daily close for entries.
• The strategy supports both long and short positions and caps the number of open trades.
• Its exits use tracked entry prices and additional price or RSI conditions.
• The overview does not fully describe the more complex exit logic in the supplied source.
• The document reports no verified performance results and notes limited market testing.
