Stochastic RSI Trading Strategy
This strategy trades based on crossover signals from the Stochastic RSI indicator.
The specific entry rules are:
Enter long when Stochastic RSI crosses above 30
Enter short when Stochastic RSI crosses below 70
Additional entry filters:
Longs require 9-period SMA above 21-period SMA
Shorts require 9-period SMA below 21-period SMA
Longs only below VWAP, shorts only above VWAP
The strategy uses stop loss and take profit for risk management:
Stop loss set at 20 ticks for both longs and shorts
Take profit set at 25 ticks for both longs and shorts
The key advantage is using Stochastic RSI to identify overbought/oversold regions combined with SMA and VWAP filters to reduce false signals. However, this strategy works better in trending rather than range-bound markets.
