RVI Histogram Trend Signals and Bar-Close Entries

Summary

This document describes an Expert Advisor that generates trades from the RVI_Histogram indicator when a bar closes. A selectable trend-detection mode uses either a crossover between the indicator’s main and signal lines together with a cloud-color change, or a transition from a neutral histogram color to pink or lime as the oscillator enters an overbought or oversold zone. The EA depends on a separately compiled indicator file to operate.

The document reports that tests used default EA inputs and omitted stop loss and take profit, and identifies EURUSD on a four-hour chart for testing in 2015. It provides no numerical performance measures or detailed test methodology in the text, so the reference to test charts alone does not establish robustness or profitability. It also gives no position-sizing rules or explanation of how the alternative signal modes compare. The description is therefore a summary of signal construction and stated test conditions, not a complete strategy specification.

Key ideas

• The EA forms signals at bar close from the RVI_Histogram indicator.
• One mode detects a main-line and signal-line crossover alongside a change in cloud color.
• Another mode detects the histogram changing from neutral gray to pink or lime.
• The EA requires the compiled indicator file to operate.
• The stated test used default inputs on EURUSD four-hour data in 2015 without stop loss or take profit.
