Non-Rescaled RSI
Updated
█ OVERVIEW
Relative Strength Index is a momentum oscillator developed by J. Wilder. The original version of RSI rescaled the relative strength measurement to [0,100] range. While the rescaling is useful for readability, This non-rescaled version tells the exact average relative strength of the movement for the past [x] period, and give another way to put the relative strength reading into context of current market condition.
█ Description & How To Use
1. The (+/-) in relative strength value indicates the direction
Example 1: Relative Strength of 2.33 means average gain is 2.33 bigger than average loss for the past [x] period (Equivalent to RSI 70)
Example 2: Relative Strength of -2.33 means average loss is 2.33 bigger than average gain for the past [x] period (Equivalent to RSI 30)
Example 3: Relative Strength of 0 means average gain is equal to average loss for the past [x] period (Equivalent to RSI 50)
Look at comparison below:
2. You can use it exactly how you would use RSI: Overbought/Oversold state, Divergence, Trend identification, Failure Swings etc..
█ Features
- Overbought/Oversold line still maintainable as standard RSI level (70,30) in user input screen. The script will recalculate and plot the ob/os level accordingly
- Value Label to indicate the RSI and RS value
- Custom Gradient Color Scheme
█ Limitation
The Relative Strength absolute value is capped at 20 to avoid ratio value too big(or too small). This is enough to get accurate equivalent of RSI reading between 5-95
