TraderJamie introduced this method: I guess this is a day trade strategy with momentum play.

I look for the RSI to move quickly from the lower range to above 60 then dip under. When it crosses back above 60, if momentum is above 0, I go long. Negative divergence of the RSI to higher prices signals a short term top and time to take profits. An orderly consolidation such as the symmetrical continuation triangle below, can allow for a second entry.
The same counter-trend setup works after a rally. Look for the RSI to quickly move from higher readings to below 40. If RSI moves back above 40 and crosses below on negative momentum, it sets up a short. It's important that the inital move in the RSI is quite fluid as is the move in price, otherwise, it could be signalling a minor move within a larger consolidation pattern, which is fine if you're nimble, but if you're not, stay on the sidelines.
