RSI

Modified on Thu, 28 Aug at 3:26 AM

The RSI (Relative Strength Index)is one of the most popular technical analysis indicators and is used to measure the strength or weakness of an asset's price over a given period of time.

The RSI is a momentum indicator developed by J. Welles Wilder and ranges on a scale of 0 to 100.

It's main purpose is to identify overbought or oversold conditions, which may indicate a reversal or consolidation of price.

The RSI indicator compares the absolute value of price increase for a given period of time with its level of decline for the same period. The result of the calculation is shown in the form of a curve on the chart, with values ranging from 0% to 100%.
