  1. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a popular technical analysis indicator used to measure the strength of a security's price action and to identify potential overbought or oversold conditions.
  2. The RSI indicator oscillates between 0 and 100, with readings above 70 typically considered overbought and readings below 30 considered oversold.
  3. Traders use the RSI indicator to confirm trends and to identify potential trend reversals. When the RSI is above 50, it's a bullish signal, while a reading below 50 is considered bearish.
  4. The RSI calculation is based on the average gain and average loss over a certain period of time, typically 14 days. The formula for RSI is: RSI = 100 - [100 / (1 + RS)], where RS = Average Gain / Average Loss.
  5. Divergences between the RSI and price action can also be used to identify potential trend reversals. For example, a bullish divergence is when the price makes lower lows, but the RSI makes higher lows, while a bearish divergence is when the price makes higher highs, but the RSI makes lower highs.
  6. While the RSI indicator can be a useful tool for traders, it's important to remember that no indicator is perfect and should be used in combination with other technical and fundamental analysis tools.
  7. Lastly, it's important to note that the RSI indicator is not specific to a particular asset class and can be used for stocks, bonds, commodities, and currencies.
