It is the most widely used technical indicator to measure the momentum of a security.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RSI was developed by American engineer and technical analyst J. Welles Wilder Jr. in the year 1978. It was introduced in his book \u201cNew Concepts in Technical Trading Systems.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The RSI is a momentum oscillator and oscillates between 0 to 100. Momentum Oscillators help traders identify overbought and oversold zones. In the overbought zone, markets are considered as bullish and bearish in the oversold zone. Further, RSI indicates the upcoming trend reversals or trend continuation in market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the help of RSI, traders and technical analysts can make informed decisions in the market.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-transparent ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title \" >Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-api.pocketful.in\/blog\/relative-strength-index-what-is-it-and-how-to-use-it\/#Calculation_of_RSI\" title=\"Calculation of RSI\">Calculation of RSI<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-api.pocketful.in\/blog\/relative-strength-index-what-is-it-and-how-to-use-it\/#How_to_use_RSI\" title=\"How to use RSI\">How to use RSI<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-api.pocketful.in\/blog\/relative-strength-index-what-is-it-and-how-to-use-it\/#Advantages_of_RSI\" title=\"Advantages of RSI\">Advantages of RSI<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-api.pocketful.in\/blog\/relative-strength-index-what-is-it-and-how-to-use-it\/#Disadvantages_of_RSI\" title=\"Disadvantages of RSI\">Disadvantages of RSI<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-api.pocketful.in\/blog\/relative-strength-index-what-is-it-and-how-to-use-it\/#Common_Mistakes_While_Using_RSI\" title=\"Common Mistakes While Using RSI\">Common Mistakes While Using RSI<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-api.pocketful.in\/blog\/relative-strength-index-what-is-it-and-how-to-use-it\/#Tips_for_using_RSI\" title=\"Tips for using RSI\">Tips for using RSI<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-api.pocketful.in\/blog\/relative-strength-index-what-is-it-and-how-to-use-it\/#Conclusion\" title=\"Conclusion\">Conclusion<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/wp-api.pocketful.in\/blog\/relative-strength-index-what-is-it-and-how-to-use-it\/#Frequently_Answered_Questions_FAQs\" title=\"Frequently Answered Questions (FAQs)\">Frequently Answered Questions (FAQs)<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-calculation-of-rsi\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calculation_of_RSI\"><\/span>Calculation of RSI<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/LcNRv5Wyyjsb7seC1DZW562OaUpeAPQ140Gd7f-bUc3zQauPgLk1NWa8QphN-H_gJfVLqIXy85fP2atv1BYNqiVaZZfyqxw2GMOsLNCxb86sjG9IaHnlTmoEAogBO8lHnunmb-RfPzf4mbXM5h4vHg\" alt=\"RSI calculation\" style=\"aspect-ratio:4\/3;object-fit:cover;width:334px;height:auto\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RSI is calculated using a rolling period of 14 days. The period could be changed as per the suitability. However, the most preferred period is 14 days only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For each day, calculate the price change, i.e., if the closing price is higher than the previous closing price, calculate the gain, and if the closing price is lower, calculate the loss. Then, calculate the average gain or average loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the last step, calculate the Relative strength (RS) by dividing the average gain by the average loss and calculate the RSI using the formula given below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>RSI<\/strong> = 100 \u2013 (100\/1+RS)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t get confused by looking at the formula of RSI; charting software will do all the calculations for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-formulas\">Formulas:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Price Change<\/strong> = Today\u2019s Closing Price \u2013 Last day\u2019s Closing Price.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Average Gain <\/strong>= Sum of gains over the given period \/ Number of days in the period.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Average Loss <\/strong>= Sum of losses over the period \/ Number of days in the period.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Relative Strength (RS)<\/strong> = Average Gain \/ Average Loss.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-use-rsi\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_use_RSI\"><\/span>How to use RSI<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few applications of RSI are listed below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-overbought-amp-oversold-conditions\">1. Overbought &amp; Oversold Conditions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the value of the RSI is above 70, it is considered that the price of the stock is in the overbought zone and a price correction is expected. In contrast, values of the RSI below 30 indicate that the stock price is in the oversold zone, and a price rebound is expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-divergence\">2. Divergence<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RSI divergence occurs when the asset price makes higher highs, but RSI makes higher lows and vice versa. RSI and the price of a security move in the opposite direction. This indicates the weakening of the current trend or trend reversal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further, Divergence can be of two types:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Regular Divergence<\/strong> &#8211; In regular divergence, the asset price and the RSI move in the opposite direction. Further, regular divergence is classified into bullish divergence and bearish divergence.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hidden Divergence<\/strong> &#8211; Hidden Divergence occurs when the asset price and the RSI moves in the same direction and the asset price makes a new high or new low, but the high or low on the RSI is in the same direction. Future, hidden divergence is classified into bearish hidden divergence and bullish hidden divergence.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-trend-confirmation\">3. Trend Confirmation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RSI is used to confirm the strength of a trend. If the RSI increases along with the price, it indicates a strong uptrend in the asset. On the other hand, if the RSI falls along with the price, it indicates a strong downtrend in the asset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-support-and-resistance-level\">4. Support and Resistance Level<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RSI can be used in combination with support and resistance levels. For example, the stock price is at its resistance level, and the RSI is in the overbought zone, i.e., above 70. This could indicate a trend reversal in the asset from the current level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-advantages-of-rsi\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advantages_of_RSI\"><\/span>Advantages of RSI<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/_hdHWaF7m8aIPfg-r9j1SjwTbB8jjKZnPsC5Bx2zCk-Fma1se-ihXdQNAapzRY8N-2QXaU16J64regE6T2LypQOaGddiUPsoAo1QTTKb1NFawSS7KVZoj4uWA6BNjUC9E4PPYweG83CW_2Uc2VAdjQ\" alt=\"Advantages of RSI\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.3333333333333333;object-fit:cover;width:260px;height:auto\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>RSI can be applied to multiple financial instruments, including stocks, foreign exchange, cryptocurrencies, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Traders can customise the look-back period for the RSI calculation based on their preferences.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>RSI confirms the strength of the current trend in the market and can be useful in identifying overbought and oversold zones.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-disadvantages-of-rsi\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Disadvantages_of_RSI\"><\/span>Disadvantages of RSI<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>RSI can generate false signals in a sideways market.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>RSI focuses purely on price action and does not take into consideration any other external factor, such as news or other economic events.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Interpreting the values of RSI is a subjective task.
