Explanation

There are several popular techniques of interpreting, some of which include:

RSI Forex Trading Divergence:

Looking for divergences between the RSI and price can prove to be very effective in identifying potential reversal points in price movement. Trade long on Classic Bullish Divergence: Lower lows in price and higher lows in the RSI; Trade short on Classic Bearish Divergence: Higher highs in price and lower highs in the RSI. These types of divergence are often indications of an impending reversal.

RSI Overbought Oversold Levels:

The RSI can be used to identify potential overbought and over-sold conditions in price movements. An Overbought condition is generally described as the RSI being greater than or equal to the 70% level while an oversold condition is generally described as the RSI being less than or equal to the 30% level. Trades can be generated when the RSI crosses these levels. When the RSI crosses above 30 a buy signal is given. Alternatively, when the indicator crosses below 70 a sell signal is given.

RSI 50-level FX Trading Crossover:

When the RSI crosses above 50 a buy signal is given. Alternatively, when the RSI crosses below 50 a sell signal is given.
