    Study Notes

    Relative Strength Index (RSI)

    • RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and change of price movements.
    • It helps identify overbought or oversold conditions in a market.
    • Commonly used in technical analysis to forecast potential price reversals.

    Misconceptions about RSI

    • Not all interpretations about RSI are accurate; some may lead to false signals.
    • It does not indicate the direction of future price movements solely.

    RSI Measurement Scale

    • Typically measured on a scale from 0 to 100.
    • Levels above 70 often signal overbought conditions, while levels below 30 suggest oversold conditions.

    Relative Strength (RS)

    • RS compares the magnitude of recent gains to recent losses.
    • It serves as a foundational component for calculating RSI.

    RSI Computation

    • Calculated using the average gains and losses over a specified period, usually 14 days.
    • Formula: RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS)), where RS is the average of x days’ up closes divided by the average of x days’ down closes.
