RSI dip with trend filter strategy on Bitfinex
Buy oversold RSI dips, but only when price is still above the 50 EMA.
Is the RSI dip with trend filter strategy the best on Bitfinex?
There's no universal answer. Whether the RSI dip with trend filter strategy is the 'best' on Bitfinex depends on the pair you trade, the timeframe, the period, and β critically β Bitfinex's trading fees. A strategy that looks great on a fee-free chart can bleed out once Bitfinex's real costs are applied.
So instead of a number we can't honestly promise, this page gives you the strategy's exact mechanics, what Bitfinex's fees and data mean for it, and how to run the backtest yourself on real BTC/USDT history β then read the robustness score to see whether the edge survives out-of-sample, not just in a curve-fit.

What Bitfinex's fees do to this strategy
Bitfinex's spot maker fee is 0.10%, so a full round-trip costs roughly 0.20% before slippage. For the RSI dip with trend filter strategy that's a smaller factor β it holds positions longer, so fees are diluted across bigger moves. Fee drag is the difference between an edge that survives live and one that only existed on a zero-fee chart β so always backtest with Bitfinex's real costs switched on.
