UT Bot Options Selling with RSI, ADX, and Candle Spike Filters
Summary
This script describes a rules-based options-selling signal system built around a UT Bot ATR trailing stop. A close crossing above the stop signals a put-side sale, while a cross below signals a call-side sale. Each signal also needs to pass an RSI range check and an ADX threshold, and trades are blocked when the current candle’s high-low range exceeds a multiple of ATR. Entries are restricted to a stated daytime window in the Asia/Kolkata time zone, with positions closed outside that window.
The document provides implementation details and parameter defaults, but no performance results, option contract selection rules, or evidence that the signals are profitable. Its strategy orders are simulated as long and short positions in the underlying chart instrument, so they do not model option premiums, Greeks, assignment, or expiration. The spike filter may avoid entering during unusually large candles, but it does not cap losses on an open position. Risk controls, sizing beyond the script’s equity-based setting, and validation across markets are not demonstrated.
Key ideas
- A UT Bot ATR trailing-stop crossover supplies the directional entry signal.
- RSI ranges and a minimum ADX value act as additional entry filters.
- A candle-range filter blocks entries when the current bar is unusually large relative to ATR.
- The script limits entries to a daytime window and closes positions outside it.
- The underlying-position simulation does not represent the payoff or risks of actual options.
