Description
OverviewRSI SMA Crossover Strategy works the same way as traditional MA crossover strategies, but using RSI instead of price. When RSI crosses over the SMA, a long position is opened (buy). When RSI crosses under the SMA, the long position is closed (sell). This strategy can be very effective when the right inputs are used (see below). Be sure to use the backtesting tool to determine the optimal parameters for a given asset/timeframe.
