Relative Strength Index (RSI)
- The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements. It is typically used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in financial markets.
- The RSI is calculated using the following formula:
RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
Where RS is the ratio of the average gains to the average losses over a specified period.
- The default time period used is 14 days.
- RSI values range between 0 and 100.
RSI values above 70 are considered overbought (indicating a potentially opportune time to sell)
RSI values below 30 are considered oversold (indicating a potentially opportune time to buy)
RSI is not a perfect indicator and should be used in conjunction with other technical analysis tools, this is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional financial advice.
