RSI Breakout SW
The likelihood of farther price movement increases when the Relative Strength Index oscillator "RSI" breaks through its historical resistance levels in conjunction with prices breakout of resistance levels. It's strongly encouraged to confirm price breakout with oscillator breakout since they have comparable effects to price breaking support and resistance levels; similar perception is applied to short trades.
Concept is based on find swing levels which based on number of bars by each side to confirm peak or trough and in turn subjected to change by indicator settings "swing backstep".
Concept of oscillator support & resistance breakout is explained by the first & second screenshot. Thresholds have been provided to utilize if required, but remember to disable when looking for the earliest reversal signal.
Indicator signals are shown only on separated window; however, in case of desire to have signals displayed on chart window, pertained indicator could be found at https://www.mql5.com/en/market/product/63662/
Having desire to use the indicator in your EA, consider buffer no 3 for long trades, and buffer no 4 for short trades. Indicator recommended to be used along with other indicators for price support and resistance, supply & demand zones, and/or trend indicator/s
indicator setting:
- Swing Backstep (min no of bars) : minimum no of bars to form peak or trough by each side
- RSI Period : applied number of bars for RSI calculation
- RSI applied price : price type used for RSI calculation
- Bullish Threshold (if not required >> -10.0) : minimum RSI value to consider overbought and display signal; having no desire to use threshold and display signals of any breakout, use a very low value (ex. -10.0)
- Bearish Threshold (if not required >> +110.0) : maximum RSI value to consider oversold and display signal; having no desire to use threshold and display signals of any breakout, use a very high value (ex. +110.0)
- Show only early breakout signals : Only display oscillator breakouts when occurs together with delay of price breakout (if required).
- Breakout Signal Gap : controls the distance between signal arrow and RSI curve
Note: No indicator will guarantee 100% of winning trades, but trader shall backtest for optimized setting in conjunction with other indicators
