This strategy combines Bollinger Bands with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator. It requires signals from both indicators - RSI overbought/oversold together with breakouts of Bollinger Bands upper/lower lines - before issuing any trading signals. This makes the strategy’s signals more strict and reliable.
By requiring agreement from both Bollinger Bands and RSI, this strategy avoids acting on misleading signals from a single indicator, hence more reliable.
To address the above risks, parameters should be optimized, models strictly tested, and major trends determined with additional indicators.
This strategy successfully combines the strengths of Bollinger Bands and RSI, issuing trading signals only when both indicators agree. This avoids acting on misleading signals from any single indicator, making trades more reliable. Nonetheless, parameters should be optimized, models strictly tested, and major trends determined with other indicators, to further enhance the strategy’s stability and profitability.
