RSI-weighted DCA for ETH. 2x buy at RSI<30, 1x at 30-50, 0.5x at 50-70, skip at >70. Backtested 4 years: 40% more ETH than plain DCA same capital.

Long-term hold strategy — no regular exits | Take 10% off table when RSI(weekly) exceeds 85 | Rebalance to 50% ETH/50% stablecoin if RSI > 90 | Emergency sell only if thesis changes fundamentally

Ethereum DCA Strategy with RSI Timing — Better Than Plain DCA
Instead of buying fixed amounts at fixed intervals, use RSI to time your DCA buys. Buy 2x your normal amount when weekly RSI is below 30, buy normal amount when RSI is 30-50, buy half amount when RSI is 50-70, skip buys when RSI is above 70. Over 4 years of backtesting, this approach yielded 40% more ETH than plain DCA with the same total capital deployed.
