A Nine-Level RSI Display for Swing Direction and Intensity

Summary

This visual indicator assigns signed levels from one to nine using RSI readings. For each level, it checks whether RSI is above or below the midpoint of 50: readings above it receive a positive level, and readings below it receive a negative level. The outputs are given different colors, making the levels visually distinct. The document presents the display as a way for beginners to identify swing direction and intensity.

The description does not establish that these levels measure swing strength reliably, nor does it provide entry or exit rules, backtests, or example outcomes. It also does not explain why the separate RSI calculations use periods from one through nine or how users should combine their readings. This is best understood as a visual classification aid based on RSI thresholds, not a validated swing-trading system. Its usefulness depends on the market, timeframe, and trading rules applied around the display.

Key ideas

• Each level compares an RSI reading with the midpoint of 50.
• Readings above 50 are assigned positive values, while readings below 50 receive negative values.
• The indicator presents nine color-coded outputs to visualize directional levels.
• The document provides no performance evidence or rules for turning the display into trades.
