Is there any way to know if RSI is uptrend or downtrend?

[prasad-zenconix]

Hi there,
I am looking for some solution or hint to get if RSI is uptrend or downtrend.

if it is continues uptrend like 40 -> 45 -> 50 -> 55 -> 58 -> 60 then its easy to figure out , it is uptrend
but if it is something like 40 -> 45 -> 50 -> 55 -> 53 -> 55 -> 58 -> 56 -> 60 ... although overall it is uptrend but little bit difficult to know, that it is uptrend..
Same for downtrend ..
Is there any way to know if it is going uptrend or downtrend ? any hint is ok.

Thank you.

There's probably a few concepts you can try. Here's some random thoughts:

// average directional index
var results = quotes
  .GetRsi(..)
  .GetAdx(..);

// slope of smoothed RSI
var results = quotes
  .GetRsi(..)
  .GetAlma(..)
  .GetSlope(..);

You can also try an STC of an RSI. I bet you can get it to give you a binary-like output if you get the parameter values right:

var results = quotes
  .GetRsi(..)
  .GetStc(..);

This might work too:

var results = quotes
  .GetRsi(..)
  .GetAroon(..);
