The RSI explained ! how to identify buy and sell signals Hello everyone , as we all know the market action discounts everything :) I have created this short video to explain what is the RSI and how to use it to identify buy and sell signals with this oscillator , everything you need to know about this indicator is right here.
Its been around since the late 70s so its probably one of the more established oscillators out there .
So lets check out the formula and how the RSI works :
RS=100 -100/1-RS
RS (relative strength) average X day up / average X day down
So simply lets say we are using a 10 days average so we check how many days the price closed up and we add them and we divide by 10 which would give us the average X days up.
And we do the same for the average X days down but we calculate how many days the price closed down and then we add them and divide by 10 ,And after all of that has been calculated we will always get a value between 0% and 100%
And that's why the RSI is considered a bounded oscillator it means that the value will always be between 0 % and 100%
The oscillator has 2 major zones which are the overbought and oversold zones. Anything above 70% is considered overbought and anything below 30% the market considered oversold .
So when the market reaches overbought zone it tells us that the market has gone up to far and its due a bounce back down , and the same when it reaches oversold zone it means that the market has gone to far down and its due a bounce back up.
So looking to buy or sell when the market reaches oversold and overbought is one strategy .
But because the market moves a lot and reaches these levels so much this way is not as reliable that much , the better way to use the RSI is to check if it has a divergence with the market price.
what is a divergence you may ask !!!
A Divergence is when the price of the market is moving in the opposite direction of a technical indicator, such as an oscillator, Divergence warns that the current price trend may be weakening, and in some cases may lead to the price changing direction.
These signals of divergences doesn’t happen that often but they do give us a better way to use the RSI .
And there is it that’s everything you need to know about the RSI and how it works it’s a really simple oscillator and its one of the most popular oscillators used by technical analysts.

TDI Indicator for Entry SignalTDI (Traders Dynamics Index) is a powerful tool that determine the entry signal This indicator consists of 3 important indicators a below
RSI (30, 70) Period (20) --> Green
MA (50) --> Red
Bollinger Bands --> Yellow with Blue band lines
How to use the above indicator is as below
When the Green cross the Red positively, this is a green signal to buy
When the Yellow cross the Red positively, this is a green signal to buy
When the Yellow moves above the Red line, the market in up trend. If the Yellow moves below the Red line, the market in down trend
Crossing the Yellow line of the lower RSI band from bottom to top mean time to buy, while Crossing the Yellow line of the upper RSI band from top to down mean time to sell
Crossing the Yellow line the average RSI line (50) means time to buy
When the Green line cross the upper BB means the trend is strongly going up. If the Green line cross the lower BB line means the trend is strongly going down
Easily can determine the RSI Divergence (opposite top or bottoms) with the stock. If opposite bottoms, time to buy and if opposite top, time to sell
Best buy signal is when the Green line cross the Red line positively after the existing of RSI Divergence at the essential level
📖 A Guide to RSI Divergences - By Trading-GuruIn this guide I will walk you through the three main different kind of divergences and explain to you how you can spot them.
I also show you the extreme power RSI divergences have by looking at BTC/USD and mark them on the chart. It's quite special to see all these three kinds immediately after another, and it's really nice to see them all working out here as well.
Obviously, no signal will not provide a 100% success guarantee. But this text-book example on the BTC price showing how they work out every time is great for both learning and profit taking.
It can be very hard to trade an asset that has seen such immense growth and nearly vertical upwards momentum. Using RSI divergences you will still be able to predict price reversals and trade successfully. So let's take a closer look at the three different forms of RSI divergences that I cover here on the chart.
Exaggerated Divergences
Exaggerated divergences are similar to regular divergences, but are considered weaker and less predictive variations. The term exaggerated refers to a circumstance where either the oscillator or price makes an equal high or low.
Regular bullish divergences and regular bearish divergences both have two exaggerated variations, so there are four exaggerated variations in total. In this case we look at a bullish version where the price is consolidating the but the RSI shows an increase in momentum.
Hidden Bullish Divergences
A Hidden Bullish Divergence is considered a continuation signal in an uptrend. It refers to a circumstance where an oscillator reading falls down below its previous low, while price is still higher than its previous low.
Hidden bullish divergences are most likely to occur in the middle of an uptrend – often after a healthy pull back – and indicate that the uptrend will most likely continue.
The starting point of a hidden bullish divergence should be a clear swing, not just a red candlestick.
Regular Bearish Divergence
A Regular Bearish Divergence is considered a strong reversal signal in an uptrend. It refers to a circumstance where price rises and makes a higher high, while the corresponding oscillator reading is still lower than its previous high.
Bearish divergences are most likely to occur in strong uptrends and signify that upward momentum is weakening. A reversal – or at least a pull back – is then expected to follow. Regular bearish divergences also appear in exaggerated form.

BitFink's Trick For Finding TargetsBitFink posted a very clever way to use RSI divergence on long term BTC to find tops and bottoms of the macro 4 year structure:
I was looking at using this on shorter time frames and it seems like it's especially useful for finding the exit in conjunction with an elliot count. In this example once you have your 4 wave candidate you can look at the symmetry on RSI Divergence to find about where it's looking like wave 5 ends.
Targets are usually the hardest thing for me so this is very useful. It seems like using this for entries might be a little unclear since it's selecting the crossovers in the middle where RSI is the most choppy.
My favorite elliot location to enter is on the 4 wave anyway so this will be a great tool to use going forward.
