RSI(14) Mean Reversion on Webull
Buy when the 14-day RSI drops below 30 (oversold), sell when it recovers above 70 (overbought). Deployed to your own Webull account — no code, your assets never leave the broker.
Setup on Webull
- Connect your Webull account from the Brokerage page — the connection carries trade and read permissions only, never withdrawals.
- Build a strategy in the Lab (blocks or AI), or fork one from the community, and backtest it on years of minute data.
- Deploy it to Webull with a cash allocation — the strategy runs in its own isolated sleeve, so other holdings and other strategies are untouched.
- Type the live-trading confirmation. Until you do, nothing real is sent.
- Profit targets rest at Webull as real GTC limit orders; pause the strategy or the whole connection anytime.
The strategy
- WHEN the market opens · IF not invested AND RSI(14) < 30 · THEN buy with 98% of the sleeve
- WHEN the market opens · IF invested AND RSI(14) > 70 · THEN sell the whole position
Good for: assets that trend up over time but overshoot on the way — broad index ETFs are the classic home.
Watch out: in a persistent downtrend, RSI can stay oversold for weeks while the position keeps losing; there is no stop-loss in this template.

Why RSI 30/70?
They're the conventional oversold/overbought bands from Welles Wilder's original formulation. They're a starting point, not magic numbers — in DeployQuant you can drag them to 25/65 or anything else and re-backtest in seconds.
Backtests are hypothetical, computed by DeployQuant's engine on minute-resolution consolidated US market data (2021-01-04 to 2026-07-17, $10,000 starting capital, no margin, fees and slippage not modeled) and do not guarantee future results. Nothing on this page is investment advice. Live trading involves risk of loss.
