Backtest Hypothesis
The RSI Overbought strategy, which involves buying when RSI-14 crosses above 70 and selling when it falls below 70, has shown encouraging historical performance on HBARUSDT. From January 1, 2022, to November 13, 2025, the strategy yielded a total return of approximately 498.7%, with an annualized return of ~42.2%. Maximum drawdown was ~30.6%, and the Sharpe ratio of ~0.86 indicates reasonable risk-adjusted returns. On average, winning trades returned ~10.1%, while losing trades averaged ~-6.0%. A 10% stop-loss was applied as a default to manage downside risk, aligning with prudent momentum-based systems. Given the recent bearish momentum and RSI at 30, the market appears to be in a potential oversold phase, which could be a key entry point for a reversal strategy.
Looking ahead, HBARUSDT may test the 0.17311–0.1740 range as a critical support cluster. A break below this level could extend the decline toward 0.1720–0.1710. Investors should monitor volume and RSI for signs of a potential bounce or further capitulation. As always, position sizing and stop-loss placement are essential given the high volatility and low liquidity in the lower price range.
