Solana 4H RSI->MACD — Counter-Trend By Tetrad

Tetrad RSI→RSI Cross→MACD (Sequenced) — Counter-Trend (SL-Only)

Category: Market-neutral, counter-trend, sequenced entries
Timeframe default: Works on any TF; designed around 4H On Solana
Markets: Any (spot, perp, futures); parameterize to your asset

What it does

This strategy hunts reversals using a 3-step sequence on RSI and MACD, then optionally restricts entries by market regime and a price gate. It shows stop-loss lines only when hit (clean chart), and paints a Donchian glow for quick read of backdrop conditions.

Entry logic (sequenced)

1. RSI Extreme:

Long path activates when RSI < Oversold (default 27.5).
Short path activates when RSI > Overbought (default 74).

2. RSI Cross confirmation:

Long path: RSI crosses up back above the oversold level.
Short path: RSI crosses down back below the overbought level.
Each step has a max bar lookback so stale signals time out.

3. MACD Cross trigger:

Long: MACD line crosses above Signal.
Short: MACD line crosses below Signal.
→ When step 3 fires and gates are satisfied, a trade is entered.

Optional gates & filters

Regime Filter (Counter-Trend):

Longs allowed in **Range / Short Trend / Short Parabolic** regimes.
Shorts allowed in **Range / Long Trend / Long Parabolic** regimes.
Based on ADX/DI and ATR% intensity.
* Price Gate (Long Ceiling):

Toggle to **disable new longs above a chosen price (default 209.0 For SOL).
Useful for assets like SOL where you want longs only below a cap.

Exits / Risk

* Stop-Loss (% of entry):** default **14%**, toggleable.
* SL visualization:** plots a **thin dashed red line only on the bar it’s hit**.
* (No take-profit or time-based exit in this version—keep it pure to the sequence and regime. Add TP/time exits if desired.)

Visuals

* Donchian Glow (50): background band only (upper/lower lines hidden).
* Regime HUD: compact table (top-right) highlighting the active regime.
* Minimal marks: no entry/exit “arms” clutter; only SL-hit lines render.

Inputs (key)

* Core: RSI Length, Oversold/Overbought, MACD Fast/Slow/Signal.
* Sequence: Max bars from Extreme→RSI Cross and RSI Cross→MACD Cross.
* Regime: ADX Length, Trend/Parabolic thresholds, ATR length & floor.
* Stops: Enable/disable; SL %.
* Price Gate: Enable; Long ceiling price.

Alerts

Sequenced Long (CT): RSI<low → RSI cross up → MACD bull cross (+ price gate).
Sequenced Short (CT): RSI>high → RSI cross down → MACD bear cross.

## Notes & Tips

Designed for counter-trend fades that become trend rides. The regime filter helps avoid fading true parabolics and aligns entries with safer contexts.
The sequence is stateful (steps must occur in order). If a step times out, the path resets.
Works on lower TFs, but the 4H baseline reduces noise and over-trading.
Consider pairing with volume or structure filters if you want fewer but higher-conviction entries.
