RSI Drop Trading Strategy
The RSI Drop Trading Strategy is a mean‑reversion system that targets short‑term rebounds after a sharp, oversold pullback, using the Relative Strength Index as its trigger. The method was backtested on the S&P 500 from 1995 to 2025, generating 244 trades with an 81% win ratio. It delivered a 5.1% compound annual growth rate while staying in the market only 12% of the time, and produced a profit factor of 36. The approach emphasizes rule‑based entry and exit to remove emotion from trading decisions.
