What Goes into RSI?

The Relative Strength Index is going to measure price changes over the past X periods (with X being the input that you can enter into the indicator.)

• If you set RSI of 5 periods, it will measure the strength of this candles price movement against the previous 4 (for a total of the last 5 periods).
• If you use RSI at 55 periods, you will be measuring this candles strength or weakness to the last 54 periods.

The more periods you use, the ‘slower’ the indicator will appear to react to recent price changes.
