Trading Crypto Currency using MA Crossover + RSI Strategy

| Crypto | 40 seen

In this article, I will share details on how I configured Trality crypto trading bot for trading ADA and XLM coins with Moving Averages crossovers and RSI indicators

Originally I launched this algorithm trading bot in mid-May 2021, by setting it up to sell EUR-XLM pair based on RSI strategy, a bit later I added ADA coin to this setup, but then I noticed that the bot has used all buying power to purchase only ADA coins, which is not what I actually wanted and here I decided I need to fine-tune some settings, defining that only 50% can go in purchasing one coin.

Further, I fine-tuned this bot to trade with RSI+STOCH indicators, but after a steep drop in the market, when the bot did quite opposite it should (buy high, sell low) I decided to fine-tune further, and this time I looked on Moving averages crossover + RSI

Here are my settings for this algo trading bot:

Trading pair:

  • ADA-EUR
  • XLM-EUR

Strategy

  • MA-crossover  
  • RSI (oversold:25)
  • Ma-crossover
  • RSI (overbought: 70)

Backtesting XLM-EUR RSI Strategy with Trality

| Crypto | 20 seen

For the past couple of days, I've been testing Trality crypto trading bot, executing a few trades.  I must say - I feel very impressed with what this bot can do, if you are new to Trality, see my brief review here: Simple Crypto Trading Bot From Trality

As I like testing and implementing ideas, in today's article I'm going to talk about the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and its usage in crypto trades. I believe RSI is one of the easiest ways to trade crypto. Not 100% proof, but a good starting point for sure. In fact, this is the one and only I understand the most.

Day in Borjomi National Park - or we love to head here 2-3x times a year.

Cool views, illegal dining in a secret restaurant, nice boutique apart-hotels, selfie-stick, trampolines, and of course a lot of mineral water.

Decided to experiment with mobile + drone videography. What do you think? Should I do more like this? Drop me a comment!

At the start of April 2021, after a 6-month absence, we finally returned back to Georgia. One of the things we wanted to do - as many quick day trips as possible.

One of the first - day trip to Uplistsikhe Cave Town

Uplistsikhe is an ancient rock-hewn town in eastern Georgia, located some 10 kilometers east of the town of Gori, Shida Kartli.

Built on a high rocky left bank of the Mtkvari River, it contains various structures dating from the Early Iron Age to the Late Middle Ages and is notable for the unique combination of various styles of rock-cut cultures from Anatolia and Iran, as well as the co-existence of pagan and Christian architecture.

Just the three of us

Uplistsikhe is identified by archaeologists as one of the oldest urban…

| Stock Portfolio | 78 seen

Baltic Horizon Fund is a regulated closed-end contractual investment fund registered in Estonia. The fund is traded on Tallinn (Nasdaq Baltics)  and Stockholm stock exchanges.

This fund operates under the REIT concept where the vast majority of Fund’s cash earnings are paid and only 20% can be reinvested.

On May 12, I bought some humble 100 shares with Baltic Horizon Fund from my local SEB bank broker in Latvia.

I've been investing with this fund since 2018, I really like this REIT, because it has quarterly dividend payments (rare in the Baltic) and the dividend yield is pretty high of some 4.5% annually.

  • Why I'm Investing in Baltic Horizon Fund (NHCBHFFT)

I was holding this fund until the start of 2020 but was forced to sell it at the start of Pandemic to cover losses in my US brokerage account where I was facing margin calls. Following words I said when sold it:

I sold because I was facing rough times in my US broker account, I just needed to deposit additional cash to close my negative balance and avoid further…

Zedazeni monastery

| Churches and Monasteries | 30 seen

Zedazeni Monastery is a Georgian Orthodox monastery, located on the Zedazeni mountain the hills of Saguramo, northeast to Mtskheta, and to the east side of the Aragvi River.

There is a pretty steep but good-quality road heading to the monastery complex from the Saguramo village. This could actually be the very awesome route for hiking - Saguramo - Zedazeni monastery.

Zedazeni monastery

We first visited Zedazeni monastery in early April 2021, despite we have been quite a few times at the Saguramo village, there is a nice hotel with an open-air pool located in Saguramo, see Sevsamora Resort & Spa

Zedazeni monastery

The monastery was founded by Saint John, one of the Holy Assyrian Fathers of Georgia whose mission was to strengthen Christianity in the region.

In a clear day some awesome photos toward Tbilisi town coul be made from the monastery complex. Also I believe this place is brilliant for golden hour photography.

Unfortunately, no drones are allowed at site.
