True Strength Index (TSI) Indicator Analysis & TSI Buy & Sell Signals
Developed by William Blau
TSI is a momentum indicator. The TSI is plotted by using a momentum calculation that reacts faster and is more responsive to price changes, making it a leading indicator that follows price action direction closely in the market.
The TSI is plotted as a blue line, the indicator also plots a signal line which is plotted as a red line, and these two lines are used to generate cross-over signals.
TSI also plots a histogram which shows the difference between the TSI Line and the Signal line. This histogram crosses above or below the center lines, histogram levels above the center line shows a bullish cross-over signal, while center line levels below the center line shows a bearish cross-over signal.
