Whale RSI Divergences
- Experts
- Mustafa Ozkurkcu
- Version: 1.0
This EA looks for a divergence signal, which occurs when the price of a financial instrument moves in the opposite direction of the RSI indicator. This divergence can signal that the current trend is losing momentum and a reversal is likely.
The EA identifies two types of divergence:
-
Bullish (Positive) Divergence: This occurs when the price makes a new lower low, but the RSI indicator fails to confirm this by making a higher low. This discrepancy suggests that bearish momentum is weakening, and a price reversal to the upside is imminent. When this signal is detected, the EA is configured to open a BUY trade.
-
Bearish (Negative) Divergence: This occurs when the price makes a new higher high, but the RSI indicator makes a lower high. This suggests that bullish momentum is fading, and a price reversal to the downside is likely. When this signal is detected, the EA will open a SELL trade.
To filter out false signals and improve accuracy, the EA incorporates an additional confirmation step. It only considers a divergence signal valid if it is followed by a strong confirmation candle (e.g., a large bullish candle for a buy signal or a large bearish candle for a sell signal), indicating a strong reversal has already started.
Input Parameters
The EA includes several customizable input parameters that allow you to adjust the strategy to your trading style and market conditions:
-
Indicator Settings:
-
Timeframe : The chart timeframe the EA will analyze (e.g., H1, H4, Daily).
-
RSI Period : The number of periods used to calculate the RSI indicator. A higher value makes the indicator smoother but less responsive.
-
Divergence Lookback Period : The number of past bars the EA will search for divergence patterns. A larger value will detect long-term divergences but might generate fewer signals.
-
-
Trading Settings:
-
Lot Size : The volume of the trades to be executed.
-
Risk/Reward Ratio : Sets the ratio between the Take Profit and Stop Loss distances. A value of 2.0 means the Take Profit is twice the size of the Stop Loss.
-
Stop Loss (pips) : The distance in pips for the Stop Loss order from the entry price.
-
Allow Buy Trades : A boolean (true/false) switch to enable or disable long positions.
-
Allow Sell Trades : A boolean (true/false) switch to enable or disable short positions.
-
Magic Number : A unique number that identifies the trades opened by this EA. This is crucial for managing multiple EAs on the same account.
