RSI

Claims it makes (quotes pulled from the transcript)

  • “When daily RSI crosses above 70 it signals momentum continuation, so go long and exit when RSI drops below 50. Add weekly and monthly RSI for stronger confirmation.”

Verdict

At least it tests a specific, falsifiable claim — that RSI above 70 predicts continuation rather than exhaustion.

How we tested it

Nifty-50 daily, 2 years, single-timeframe plus multi-timeframe (weekly, monthly) confirmation variants.
It doesn't. −0.15R per trade, and stacking weekly + monthly RSI confirmation made it steadily worse (−0.29R, then −0.43R for the dip-buy variant). RSI>70 carries no continuation edge on Indian equities — the core thesis is simply false.
