This strategy combines the MACD and StochRSI indicators across multiple timeframes for improved reliability in trade signals. It is a typical multi-timeframe combination approach.
Strategy Logic:
Calculate MACD and StochRSI on daily and 4-hour periods.
Enter long when both bullish signals align on daily and 4-hour.
Enter short when both bearish signals align on daily and 4-hour.
Hold position until opposite signals appear on both timeframes.
Cross-validation via multi-timeframe improves accuracy.
Advantages:
Multi-timeframe analysis improves signal stability.
MACD and StochRSI verify each other.
Clear entry and exit rules ease testing and execution.
Risks:
Multi-timeframe combinations lag trade entries.
Complex parameter optimization across periods.
Potentially fewer trades Unable to fully capitalize on all market opportunities.
In summary, this multi-timeframe approach can improve signal quality but requires balancing optimization and lag against risk-adjusted returns.
