Description & Settings
Idea by
:
A simple Expert Advisor based on iRSI (Relative Strength Index, RSI).
The trading strategy is simple:
A BUY position is opened at the intersection of
RSI DOWN level
from bottom up;
A SELL position is opened at the intersection of
RSI UP level
downwards.
The lot size is fixed and is set in parameters (
Lots
). You can also specify the desired
Stop Loss
,
Take Profit
and
Trailing Stop
.
In the course of signal formation, the indicator can temporarily cross any of the levels (upper or lower), therefore the trading signal is checked at bar #1 and bar #2. Position closure is a bit more interesting - positions are mainly closed when an opposite signal appears. Accordingly, if there are open BUY positions and a SELL signal appears, all BUY positions will be closed and one SELL position will be opened.
You can try different values of
Stop Loss
,
Take Profit
and
Trailing Stop
. Parameters can be disabled by setting their values to "0.0".
