RSI Fibonacci Flow [JOAT]RSI Fibonacci Flow - Advanced Fibonacci Retracement with RSI Confluence
Introduction
RSI Fibonacci Flow is an open-source overlay indicator that combines automatic Fibonacci retracement levels with RSI momentum analysis to identify high-probability trading zones. The indicator automatically detects swing highs and lows, draws Fibonacci levels, and generates confluence signals when RSI conditions align with key Fibonacci zones.
This indicator is designed for traders who use Fibonacci retracements but want additional confirmation from momentum analysis before entering trades.
Originality and Purpose
This indicator is NOT a simple mashup of RSI and Fibonacci tools. It is an original implementation that creates a synergistic relationship between two complementary analysis methods:
Why Combine RSI with Fibonacci? Fibonacci retracements identify WHERE price might reverse, but they don't tell you WHEN. RSI provides the timing component by showing momentum exhaustion. When price reaches the Golden Zone (50%-61.8%) AND RSI shows oversold conditions, the probability of a successful bounce increases significantly.
Original Confluence Scoring System: The indicator calculates a 0-5 confluence score that weights multiple factors: Golden Zone presence (+2), entry zone presence (+1), RSI extreme alignment (+1), RSI divergence (+1), and strong RSI momentum (+1). This scoring system is original to this indicator.
Automatic Pivot Detection: Unlike manual Fibonacci tools, this indicator automatically detects swing highs and lows using a configurable pivot algorithm, then draws Fibonacci levels accordingly. The pivot detection uses a center-bar comparison method that checks if a bar's high/low is the highest/lowest within the specified depth on both sides.
Dynamic Trend Awareness: The indicator determines trend direction based on pivot sequence (last pivot was high or low) and adjusts Fibonacci orientation accordingly. In uptrends, 0% is at swing low; in downtrends, 0% is at swing high.
Each component serves a specific purpose:
Fibonacci levels identify potential reversal zones based on natural price ratios
RSI provides momentum context to filter out low-probability setups
Confluence scoring quantifies setup quality for position sizing decisions
Automatic pivot detection removes subjectivity from level placement
Core Concept: RSI-Fibonacci Confluence
The most powerful trading setups occur when multiple factors align. RSI Fibonacci Flow identifies these moments by:
Automatically detecting price pivots and drawing Fibonacci levels
Tracking which Fibonacci zone the current price occupies
Monitoring RSI for overbought/oversold conditions
Generating signals when RSI extremes coincide with key Fibonacci levels
Scoring confluence strength on a 0-5 scale
When price reaches the Golden Zone (50%-61.8%) while RSI shows oversold conditions in an uptrend, the probability of a bounce increases significantly.
Fibonacci Levels Explained
The indicator draws nine Fibonacci levels based on the most recent swing:
0% (Swing Low/High): The starting point of the move
23.6%: Shallow retracement - often seen in strong trends
38.2%: First significant support/resistance level
50%: Psychological midpoint of the move
61.8% (Golden Ratio): The most important Fibonacci level
78.6%: Deep retracement - last defense before trend failure
100% (Swing High/Low): The end point of the move
127.2% (TP1): First extension target for take profit
161.8% (TP2): Second extension target for take profit
The Golden Zone
The area between 50% and 61.8% is highlighted as the "Golden Zone" because:
It represents the optimal retracement depth for trend continuation
Institutional traders often place orders in this zone
It offers favorable risk-to-reward ratios
Price frequently bounces from this area in healthy trends
When price enters the Golden Zone, the indicator highlights it with a semi-transparent box and optional background coloring.
Pivot Detection System
The indicator uses a configurable pivot detection algorithm:
pivotDetect(float src, int len, bool isHigh) =>
int halfLen = len / 2
float centerVal = nz(src , src)
bool isPivot = true
for i = 0 to len - 1
if isHigh
if nz(src , src) > centerVal
isPivot := false
break
else
if nz(src , src) < centerVal
isPivot := false
break
isPivot ? centerVal : float(na)
This identifies swing highs and lows by checking if a bar's high/low is the highest/lowest within the specified depth on both sides.

6. Entry Signals
BUY and SELL labels when confluence conditions are met:
BUY: RSI oversold + price in entry zone + uptrend + positive momentum
SELL: RSI overbought + price in entry zone + downtrend + negative momentum
Labels include "RSI+FIB" to indicate confluence
Confluence Scoring System
The indicator calculates a confluence score from 0 to 5:
+2 points: Price is in the Golden Zone (50%-61.8%)
+1 point: Price is in the entry zone (38.2%-61.8%)
+1 point: RSI is oversold in uptrend OR overbought in downtrend
+1 point: RSI divergence detected (bullish or bearish)
+1 point: Strong RSI momentum (change > 2 points)
Confluence ratings:
STRONG (4-5): Multiple factors align - high probability setup
MODERATE (2-3): Some factors align - proceed with caution
WEAK (0-1): Few factors align - wait for better setup

How to Use RSI Fibonacci Flow
Identifying Entry Zones:
Wait for price to retrace to the 38.2%-61.8% zone
Check if RSI is approaching oversold (for longs) or overbought (for shorts)
Look for STRONG confluence rating in the dashboard
Enter when BUY or SELL signal appears
Setting Take Profit Targets:
TP1 at 127.2% extension for conservative target
TP2 at 161.8% extension for aggressive target
Consider scaling out at each level
Using the Price Zone:
"BELOW 23.6%" - Price hasn't retraced much; wait for deeper pullback
"23.6% - 38.2%" - Shallow retracement; strong trend continuation possible
"38.2% - 50%" - Good entry zone for trend trades
"GOLDEN ZONE" - Optimal entry zone; highest probability
"61.8% - 78.6%" - Deep retracement; trend may be weakening
"78.6% - 100%" - Very deep; trend reversal possible
"ABOVE/BELOW 100%" - Trend has likely reversed
Confluence Trading Strategy:
Only take trades with confluence score of 3 or higher
STRONG confluence (4-5) warrants larger position size
MODERATE confluence (2-3) warrants smaller position size
WEAK confluence (0-1) - wait for better setup
Alert Conditions
Ten alert conditions are available:
RSI-Fib BUY Signal: Strong bullish confluence detected
RSI-Fib SELL Signal: Strong bearish confluence detected
Price in Golden Zone: Price enters 50%-61.8% zone
New Pivot High: Swing high detected
New Pivot Low: Swing low detected
RSI Overbought: RSI crosses above overbought threshold
RSI Oversold: RSI crosses below oversold threshold
Bullish Divergence: Potential bullish RSI divergence
Bearish Divergence: Potential bearish RSI divergence
Strong Confluence: Confluence score reaches 4 or higher
Understanding Trend Direction
The indicator determines trend based on pivot sequence:
UPTREND: Last pivot was a low after a high (expecting move up)
DOWNTREND: Last pivot was a high after a low (expecting move down)
Fibonacci levels are drawn accordingly:
In uptrend: 0% at swing low, 100% at swing high
In downtrend: 0% at swing high, 100% at swing low
Bar Coloring
When confluence features are enabled:
Cyan bars on strong bullish signals
Orange bars on strong bearish signals
Gold-tinted bars when price is in Golden Zone
Best Practices
Use on 1H timeframe or higher for more reliable pivots
Adjust Pivot Depth based on timeframe (higher for longer timeframes)
Wait for price to enter Golden Zone before considering entries
Confirm RSI is in favorable territory before trading
Use extension levels (127.2%, 161.8%) for realistic profit targets
Combine with support/resistance and candlestick patterns
Higher confluence scores indicate higher probability setups
Limitations
Pivot detection has inherent lag (must wait for confirmation)
Fibonacci levels are subjective - different swings produce different levels
Works best in trending markets with clear swings
RSI can remain overbought/oversold in strong trends
Not all Golden Zone entries will be successful
