Research-Based RSI Threshold Configuration
Research-Based RSI Threshold Configuration is an empirical RSI decision-support indicator based on the findings of research by Hatem Mabrouk, Federico Trigos, and Francisco Valderrey.
The underlying study systematically evaluated nine RSI threshold configurations across nine major cryptocurrencies and the S&P 500 using weekly RSI(14) data. The findings challenge the conventional assumption that the standard 30/70 configuration is universally optimal and identify asset-specific dominant threshold configurations based on win rate, geometric weekly return, and average holding period.
This indicator operationalizes those empirical findings directly within TradingView. For assets included in the study, it automatically displays the research-based RSI threshold configuration identified by the empirical analysis.
The indicator provides three display modes:
• Research-Based: Displays the empirically identified threshold configuration for the selected asset.
• Conventional 30/70: Displays the traditional RSI 30/70 configuration.
• Compare Both: Displays the research-based and conventional configurations simultaneously for direct comparison.
The indicator uses weekly RSI(14) regardless of the chart timeframe and provides visual entry and exit zones, threshold-entry markers, alerts, and an information dashboard.
Assets currently supported by the empirical research: BTC, ETH, ADA, AVAX, BNB, DOGE, SOL, TRX, XRP, and the S&P 500.
This indicator is intended for research, educational, and decision-support purposes. Historical empirical performance does not guarantee future results, and the indicator does not constitute financial or investment advice.
