Swing Trading with Hull Trend Direction, EMA Entries, and RSI Exits

Summary

This swing strategy combines a Hull moving average, exponential moving averages, and RSI. The Hull calculation supplies the directional filter: a rising condition permits long setups, while the opposite condition permits short setups. Entries use price crossing relative to an EMA; RSI thresholds trigger position closes. A fixed stop is also specified. The listed parameters provide settings for the Hull period, RSI, EMA lengths, and stop, and the published test uses BTC/USDT futures over a short 30-minute chart window.

The document offers a description and source logic, but no backtest performance figures, so it does not establish whether the rules were profitable. Its prose specifically cautions about trades near the end of a Hull trend. The RSI threshold names and values appear counterintuitive, and the strategy’s entry conditions should be verified against intended behavior before use. Results may also depend on instrument, timeframe, and parameter choices.

Key ideas

  • The Hull moving average is used to classify the market direction for long and short setups.
  • Price crossing relative to an EMA defines entries after the Hull direction filter is met.
  • RSI threshold crossings close positions, and fixed stop exits are also specified.
  • The document provides test settings but no performance evidence, and warns about late-trend entries.
