RSI

RSI (Relative Strength Index) is a popular technical analysis indicator that helps evaluate the strength of the current trend and the probability of a reversal.

It is simple to use and therefore widely used by traders.

Main Features

  • Value range: from 0 to 100
  • Calculation: based on the ratio of average price gains to average price losses over a specified period. By default, this is 14 candles of the selected timeframe

Value Interpretation

  • RSI > [value] — the asset is considered overbought, and the probability of a price decrease is higher. This is often used as a signal for a SHORT bot
  • RSI < [value] — the asset is considered oversold, and the probability of a price increase is higher. This is often used as a signal for a LONG bot

How to Enable RSI on the Exchange Chart

  1. In the exchange terminal, click Indicators
  2. Type RSI in the search field

Indicator Settings on the Exchange

  • Hover over the icon next to the indicator name
  • Set the period (Length). By default, it is 14 candles

Using RSI to Start a Bot

When configuring entry conditions, you define the RSI level yourself depending on your strategy.

  • RSI > [value] — the bot will start if the indicator value rises above the specified level
  • RSI < [value] — the bot will start if the indicator value falls below the specified level

Examples:

  • RSI > 70 is often used as a signal to start a SHORT bot
  • RSI < 30 can be used as a condition for a LONG bot
