Sexy RSI for sexy traders

2019년 4월 30일

Hello fellow sexy traders.

I was tired of constantly having to add my own horizontals/MAs to the default RSI so I decided to make this modification.

The default settings include channels from 40-80 (green horizontals) for a bullish range, and 20-60 (red horizontals) for the bearish range.

Also includes white line at 50 level, and blue horizontals at extremes (90 and 10).

If RSI stays in one of the red or green range that can signify the trend direction, as directed by Andrew Cardwell (inventor of the RSI).

If you wish for other levels to be included, just let me know! Comment on here or dm me on twitter @boss_charts and I can add the settings for you, so all you have to do is click a button and it will set it to your desired config. I want this to be a tool that is useful for heavy traders to save them time.

Additionally, in order to tell the level of the RSI and how overextended it might be, I added the setting for the RSI to change color depending on its level. Current settings are as follows:
Normal RSI (30-70) = PURPLE
Conventional Overbought/Oversold (30-20 + 70-80) = RED
1st extended (20-15 + 80-85) = PINK
2nd extended (15-10 + 85-90) = ORANGE
VERY EXTENDED (<10 + >90) = YELLOW

That way you can get an idea of how drastic a move is by the color alone. According to Dr. Cardwell, a drastic move to over/under extended can be a sign of strength.

Finally, there are the default MAs added that Mr. Cardwell defines as useful for defining the trend. These being the 9 MA and 45 EMA/WMA.

The strategy with these is to have the MAs on both price and RSI. If the 9MA is above the 45 MA on both price and RSI, then this is bullish and you can look for longs.

Conversely, if the 9 is below the 45 on both RSI and price that is bearish, and you can look for shorts.

I added the background color change for the points where the MAs cross each other, so you do not have to have the MAs fogging up your charts to know where they are relative to one another. This is similar to my MA cross indicator which contains the same functionality.

Never financial advice. Backtest it for yourself and find MA configurations that work for you.

Enjoy! Feel free to send feedback/requests whenever.
