RSI Indicator, Avg vs. RSI

[timmbbo]

On the RSI indicator, how can I tell when the Average is above, or below the RSI value? Thanks

Hello timmbbo,

Thanks for your post.

In Ninjascript you would use code like:

if (RSI(14, 3)[0] > RSI(14, 3).Avg[0])
{
// RSI line is greater than average, do something...
}

if (RSI(14, 3)[0] < RSI(14, 3).Avg[0])
{
// RSI line is less than average, do something...
}

If you wanted to know when a crossover occured you would use:

if (CrossAbove(RSI(14, 3), RSI(14, 3).Avg, 1))
{
// do something...
}

if (CrossBelow(RSI(14, 3), RSI(14, 3).Avg, 1))
{
// do something...
}
