Reinforced RSI - The Quant Science

Script from: TradingViewIntradayMomentumTrend followingVolatility

The Reinforced RSI - The Quant Science strategy augments the classic RSI approach by incorporating a 'Probabilities' module. Trades are taken long only when the RSI indicates overbought or oversold conditions. Enhancements include stop loss and take profit settings for better risk management, and a filter that initiates trades only when historical success rates exceed 51%. Backtested on TSLA with a 15-minute timeframe, using specific parameters for optimized performance.
