Technical analysis

RSI (relative strength index)

The RSI is an indicator that measures, from 0 to 100, whether an asset is overbought or oversold.

Above 70, the asset is often considered overbought (the rise may be excessive); below 30, oversold. The RSI alone is not a buy or sell order, but it flags zones where price may react.

Example

A stock rises sharply and its RSI hits 78: some traders watch for a likely pause.
