Multi-Timeframe RSI Alerts for Overbought and Oversold Levels

Article MQL5 code base
Read the original

Summary

This indicator monitors the chart symbol’s Relative Strength Index across selectable timeframes, from M1 through MN1. It can alert when RSI reaches configured extreme zones, using 75 as the default upper threshold and 25 as the default lower threshold. The stated purpose is to help identify potential reversal opportunities by flagging overbought or oversold readings.

The indicator is described as running in the background without interfering with the chart, and as monitoring only the symbol on the attached chart. The description does not report alert timing details, explain whether alerts occur on entry into a zone or while RSI remains there, or provide any performance testing. RSI extremes can persist during strong moves, so the alert should be treated as a condition to investigate rather than evidence that a reversal will follow.

Key ideas

  • The indicator monitors RSI for the symbol on the chart where it is attached.
  • It supports timeframes from M1 through MN1.
  • The default overbought and oversold thresholds are 75 and 25, and users can customize them.
  • Alerts flag extreme RSI readings as possible reversal opportunities, but no predictive results are supplied.
  • The description does not clarify whether alerts repeat while RSI remains beyond a threshold.
