Been testing out the Supertrend Indicator lately across a few altcoin pairs (mainly on the 4H and daily timeframes), and I’m honestly impressed with how well it catches breakouts — when the market isn’t too choppy.

For those not familiar, it’s a trend-following indicator that combines ATR (Average True Range) and price action. Super clean visual: green = buy zone, red = sell zone. No noise, no complicated setups.

What I’m finding:
  • Works surprisingly well for mid-cap alts like LINK, ARB, and APT
  • Less reliable in sideways conditions (as expected)
  • Gives really solid exit signals on reversals — arguably better than EMA crossovers imo
But I’m curious — anyone here use Supertrend as part of a larger strategy?Maybe combining it with:
  • RSI for confirmation
  • MACD or volume spikes
  • On-chain whale alerts?

Would love to swap some entry/exit setups or even chart screenshots if you’re down.
Also, if anyone has tuned the settings beyond the standard (7, 3) — how’s that working for you?

Supertrend can look clean, but in choppy markets, it’ll often leave you stuck in false signals.
Pairing it with RSI or MACD might help, but don’t get too attached—crypto’s volatility loves to mess with even the best indicators.
 
Supertrend is such an underrated gem—totally agree it shines on the 4H and daily charts for alts like LINK and ARB. I’ve had great results pairing it with RSI divergence and volume spikes for confluence. Haven’t tweaked settings much yet, but eager to experiment. Loving this strategic discussion!
 
Supertrend has definitely proven its value lately, especially in trending markets for mid-cap alts. I’ve seen strong synergy when combining it with RSI and whale alert data—great for filtering false signals. Still testing alternate settings, but default (7,3) holds up well so far. Solid tool for breakout-driven strategies.
 
Interesting take! I’ve dabbled with Supertrend a bit but still unsure how reliable it is long-term, especially in choppy or low-volume environments. It definitely catches trends cleanly, but I’m experimenting with tweaks and combos like RSI too. Curious if others have found optimal settings beyond the standard 7,3.
