RSI Energies Technical Indicator Overbought & Oversold Levels

RSI indicator values of above 70 are considered to be overbought; energies traders consider points above the 70 level as market tops and good points for taking profits.

RSI indicator values of below 30 are considered to be oversold; energies traders consider points below the 30 level as market bottoms and good points for taking profits.

These overbought and oversold energies levels should be confirmed by RSI center line crossovers energies signals. If these regions give a market top or bottom, this energies signal should be confirmed with RSI center line crossover energies signal. This is because these overbought and oversold levels are prone to giving whipsaws in the energies market.

In the energies example illustrated and explained below, when the RSI hit 70, it showed that the energies was overbought, and this could be considered a trading signal that the trend could reverse.

The energies chart then reversed the energies trend after a short while and started to move downwards, until it got to the oversold levels. This was considered a energies market bottom after which the energies chart started to move upwards again.

Over Extended Overbought and Oversold Levels

When the energies market is trending strongly upwards or downwards the RSI indicator will stay at these overbought and oversold levels for a long time. When this happens these overbought and oversold regions cannot be used as energies market tops and energies market bottoms because the RSI indicator will stay at these levels for an extended period of time. This is the reason why we say that the overbought and oversold regions are prone to energies whipsaws and it is best to confirm these energies signals using RSI center-line crossover strategy.
