Free to use RSI and Stochastic RSI, combined within one indicator.
The RSI and Stochastic RSI are two of the most commonly used and respected indicators in trading technical analysis. By placing them on top of each other you can save valuable space on your chart and stay more easily within your TradingView indicator limit.
The RSI is bright blue, with the "neutral" 30-70 chart area shaded blue. The Stoch RSI is red and blue, with the "neutral" 20-80 chart area shaded purple. None of the other annotations shown above will appear, they are only to demonstrate how they can be interpreted.
So what does the RSI do? Broadly speaking, the Relative Strength Index measures the strength and movements of a market.
Above 70 the RSI is considered oversold = an increased likelihood of an incoming price drop.
Below 30 the RSI is considered undersold = an increased likelihood of an incoming price rise.
What does the Stochastic RSI do? Broadly speaking, the Stochastic RSI measures the momentum of a market. It does this by measuring the RSI relative to its own high/low over the previous period.
Above 80 the Stoch RSI is considered oversold = an increased likelihood of an incoming price drop.
Below 20 the Stoch RSI is considered undersold = an increased likelihood of an incoming price rise.
Look for when the two Stoch RSI lines cross over - it is an important signal.
When the blue line is on top we have momentum driving the price up; when the red line is on top we have momentum driving the price down.
The key here is to look for periods where both the RSI and Stoch RSI are both low at the same time (especially on the daily chart) = an extremely promising entry point to catch a move up. Equally, looking for periods where both the RSI and Stoch RSI are very high is likely a good exit point (or at least a time to make absolutely certain you have a suitable stop-loss in place), because a price drop is likely not far away.
Remember: the Stoch RSI does not always fluctuate cleanly between the top and bottom. At any time it can change direction to reflect market conditions, which is why a stop loss is essential at all times. Equally, just because the RSI or Stoch RSI is at 100, it is still possible for it to keep going up due to whale action or traders FOMOing in. The same applies at low levels. Both these indicators represent historical data and therefore are not strictly predictive in nature, but show trends that may be in action.

ps - combine this powerful indicator with knowledge of strong support and resistance points with the 50/100/200 Moving Average. This will help you identify likely entry/exit points to maximise the accuracy of your predictions.
Thanks for this! I have a question about a setting option. There is "length", "lengthRSI" and "lengthStoch". What is the difference between "length" and the other two? Should users match the value in "length" with the value use in "lengthRSI"?

Graphics are nicely customizable so this is the stoch rsi I am using. But I like to set alerts where k crosses d, but this indicator does not seem to offer that option. Is there a way?

"Above 70 the RSI is considered oversold ". I think you meant to say over bought.
