Entry rules
- Short on an EQH sweep — buy-side stops grabbed, sellers step in.
- Long on an EQL sweep — sell-side stops grabbed, buyers reload.
- RSI(14) below 35 AND
- Close is above the 50-bar EMA — the dip is with the trend, not against it.
Exit rules
- Opposite-side sweep closes the trade — that's the next liquidity event and the reversal leg is done.
- 4% trailing stop, 3-bar cooldown.
- RSI(14) above 65, OR close drops below EMA(50).
- Hard 2.5% stop; 5% take-profit.
Expected behavior
Advanced — sweep recognition is fast and noisy on short timeframes. Lots of small trades, occasional clean reversals when the sweep is the real local extreme. Pair with risk management; the entry triggers right into the wick.
Cleaner equity curve than vanilla RSI mean reversion because the EMA filter cuts the worst counter-trend trades. Fewer setups, but each one comes with a stacked deck.
