πͺ RSI β Relative Strength Index
RSI (Relative Strength Index) is a momentum indicator that tells you when a coin might be overbought or oversold.
Itβs simple, powerful, and loved by both beginners and pros.
π§ Simple Definition
RSI shows how fast and how strong price moves are. It helps spot reversals, cooldowns, or breakout zones.
RSI value ranges from 0 to 100:
Above 70 β Overbought (may be time to sell)
Below 30 β Oversold (may be time to buy)
π RSI Zones
70β100
Overbought
Watch for a pullback
50
Neutral / Mid-point
No clear trend
0β30
Oversold
Watch for a bounce
β οΈ Overbought doesnβt always mean βdrop nowβ β it just means momentum is high.
π Example Use Cases
Divergence: If price makes a higher high but RSI makes a lower high β itβs a bearish divergence. (Can signal a possible reversal.)
Trend confirmation: In a strong uptrend, RSI may stay above 50 for a long time.
Entry signals: RSI dipping under 30, then rising back above it = early buy signal.
