Multi Time Frame Dip Scalping On Reversals
A multi time frame dip scalping seeks to catch a short term rebound of coins during a downtrend on a medium-term time frame. Short-term momentum is used to catch the buy signal for the strategy.
First Condition, The Buy-Signal
The rule buys the coin that meets the following condition.
- RSI lower than 35. The time frame selected is the 4 hours to catch coins that are in a medium-term downtrend.
- Price above the MA(100). The price above the MA(100) in a short-term time frame provides the buy-signal.
Second Condition, The Sell-Signal
The bot presents two options for selling the coin bought, in profit or alternatively in loss.
- Take Profit. The take profit is set to 5%. Buying a coin in oversold conditions is very risky. Setting up a larger take profit helps compensate that risk.
- Stop-loss. The percentage of the stop loss is set to 3%. A tighter stop loss in percentage terms compared to the take profit allows increasing the reward/risk profile of the strategy.
How It Works
The example above shows a live trade that the rule performed on August 24th. The shaded area in the chart indicates RSI lower than 35 on the 4 hours time frame. When the price breaches the moving average, it accelerates immediately on the upside. The rule takes profit at 5%, that is arbitrary, you can set it as you prefer according to your preferences.
We suggest keeping a ratio of 1.5 between the take profit and stop loss to improve the strategy’s overall return.
