RSI (Relative Strength Index)

A momentum indicator measuring speed and magnitude of price changes, scaled 0-100.

In depth

Above 70 traditionally signals overbought; below 30 signals oversold. RSI divergences (price making new highs while RSI doesn't) often precede reversals. Default 14-period RSI is most common; shorter periods are more sensitive but noisier.
