What to Watch For (Signal Interpretation and Higher Cycles)
The indicator provides signals based on the RSI crossing the 50 level. Here’s how to use it for reliable signals:
- Entry Signal: When the RSI crosses the 50 level at candle close, you can enter with a risk/reward ratio of 1:1.5, which can be extended if needed.
- Higher Cycle: An important additional confirmation can be obtained by observing the behavior of the RSI on higher timeframes. For example, if on a higher timeframe (H4 or H8) the RSI is above 50, it is preferable to only look for long signals on smaller timeframes like H1 or M15.
Cyclical Table to Confirm Signals with Higher Cycle
Operational Timeframe | Confirmation Timeframe | Action Strategy |
---|---|---|
M5 | H1 | Look for long signals on M5 only if the RSI on H1 is above 50; short signals if it is below 50 |
M15 | H4 | Look for long signals on M15 only if the RSI on H4 is above 50; short signals if it is below 50 |
H1 | H8 | Look for long signals on H1 only if the RSI on H8 is above 50; short signals if it is below 50 |
H4 | Daily | Look for long signals on H4 only if the RSI on Daily is above 50; short signals if it is below 50 |
