This powerful trading indicator is accompanied by a strategy based on the momentum of an asset that aims to make trades over the medium term. According to TradingView’s Strategy Tester, from January 1, 2020 to mid-February 2023, this strategy would have made nearly 1,000% profit on Bitcoin with a maximum drawdown of 35%, while the Buy & Hold would have made only 232% profit.

Usage advice #
This strategy can only be used on certain defined assets, for which we have adjusted its parameters to obtain optimized results. It is ideally used on a daily timeframe, but more compatibility will come. To see the list of available assets and time units, please refer to the changelog available on TradingView. It is recommended to use your chart in logarithmic scale.
The different elements and signals #
- The main component is a derivative of the RSI. It measures the amplitude of the movements of the selected asset to evaluate if it is overbought or oversold. It is ranged from 0 to 100.

- Around the RSI are Bollinger Bands indicating the overbought and oversold areas mentioned earlier. When the RSI re-enters the bands from above, the strategy will indicate a Short signal (sell – price down). When the RSI re-enters the bands from below, the strategy will indicate a Long signal (buy – price up).

- In the background, the strategy also calculates a trend indicator, so that you always take a position in the same direction as the market trend.
- Finally, we find the trading arrows/signals on the chart. They allow you to apply the strategy described above, by opening long and short positions, as well as closing these positions. The blue arrows indicate the opening of a Long (buy) position, while the red arrows indicate the opening of a Short (sell) position. The purple arrows indicate the closing of the positions. However, a Short signal that precedes a Long trade should also be interpreted as a signal to close the Long position. Conversely, a Long signal that precedes a Short trade should also be interpreted as a signal to close the Short position.

Settings #
By opening the parameters of the indicator, it is possible to :
- Change the time range over which TradingView should perform its backtest report. Be sure to uncheck this setting or configure it properly if you want to get real-time signals.
- Enable/disable a Trend Stop Loss. When enabled, it will close the current position if a trend change occurs, to avoid keeping an open position against the trend. This setting is called « Trend Stop Loss » and is enabled by default.
- Enable/disable a Fixed Stop Loss (in %). When enabled, please make sure to indicate in the « Stop Loss Level » box how much of a % you want to place your Stop Losses, which will automatically close the positions if the threshold is reached.

Panel information #
Like all Blockunity indicators and strategies, we find a box that gives an indication of the zone in which the asset is located.
The box shows « Sell Zone » on a red background when the RSI is above the red line, « Buy Zone » on a green background when the RSI is below the green line, and « Neutral Zone » on a blue background when the RSI is inside the Bollinger Bands.
