RSI Failure Swing Strategy

RSI Failure Swing is a classic reversal technique where the RSI forms a higher low in oversold territory or a lower high in overbought territory. This failure to reach a new extreme often precedes a change in trend.

The strategy buys when the RSI holds above its prior low and then crosses back above 30, or sells when it fails to exceed a prior high and crosses below 70.

A percent stop limits downside, and positions close when RSI crosses the opposite level.
