what do rsi and willaim%r say?


one of my pride learnings have been rsi and william%r.

in this thread i will be sharing the outlook for nifty as well as bank nifty etc. on the basis of these two super indicators.

i wanted to keep this thread different from the one based on options data for 2 reasons

1. options data is an altogether different language

2. options data can tell you reasonably accurately for the next 1-2-3 days whereas indicators can help you see a few days or weeks or months in advance.

(please treat this thread as pure sharing of my notes. please do your own research before trading.)

high probability turning points

from my experience i have seen that price has high probability of turning at the following
signals:

level 1 signal: william%r reaches extreme, rsi still away

level 2 signal: william%r stays at extreme, rsi reaches extreme

level 3 signal: william%r and rsi together reach extreme

only a very powerful rally can bulldoze all these three levels of signals.

this information can be used to trade at specific points with stop loss.

just make sure that both rsi as well as william%r are of same duration

e.g. if u r taking rsi(14) then william(14) should be taken

and if u r taking rsi (10) then william(10) should be taken

also, same duration chart is to be taken, whether 1 month or 1 year or 5 days etc.

When to square-off and reverse?

When to square-off and reverse?

A. If the rsi-run from lower to higher extreme or that from higher to lower extreme is stepped and not straight, it has been a rally and not a sell-off or buy-in.

B. If the rsi-run from lower to higher extreme or that from higher to lower is NOT stepped but straight, it has been a sell-off or buy-in and NOT a rally (unless it is coming out of a ranging/consolidation period, in which case it can be a rally)

square-off and take reverse positon

at the first lower high (in case of long unwinding)

at the first higher low (in case of short covering)

But in case A

do this after the divergence between rsi and priceline

and in case B

divergence is not likely to happen, so no need to wait for it.

Pl note: 1) Play with strict stoploss. You can always retake position.

2) When the market or stock is ranging/consolidating, you can square-off even before lower high or higher low, at the time of rsi touching extreme.

3) Only those graphs should be used which give high resolution tickers. The above mentioned observations have been derived using Google Finance charts. 1month chart with 30 min ticker and 3-6 month chart using 1 day ticker. I have seen that many other chart sources use much biger ticker and hence low sentivity.

Doing a SAR with RSI and William%R

Photobucket

See the peak on the left of A?

That was the peak when rsi 14/30min on 1 month chart was at the upper extreme.

Should U have squared-off at that time?

I suggest you don't. nobody knows whether Nifty rally will be stretched to more height.

In such cases, always sell on the lower high.

In this case peak A is the lower high after the peak rsi.

This is the clear hint that nifty is going to correct.

So at this point square off the longs and take fresh short position.

========

Photobucket

At point B, rsi has reached the lower extreme. Should you cover your shorts at this point?

Had it been a sell-off, u should have squared the shorts here.

But this has been a small rally.

What's the difference between a rally and a sell-off?

Sell-off is generally straight line, rally is a stepped fall or rise.

since this fall has been a rally (though small), u r likely to see a divergence between rsi and nifty before the rise starts again.

so, hold your shorts till that point.

That point comes at C when rsi is rising and nifty is falling (divergence).

Cover shorts here (profit of 70 points) and initiate fresh long position.

========

Photobucket

At X, rsi touches the higher extreme.

Should we square off long here?

But, as mentioned in case of point A, we are not sure whether the nifty may rally further.

so, here again we will square-off at the lower high during retreat (rsi already having touched the upper extreme).

Our "hold" decision proves good when we see the rsi falling but the nifty holding on.

This is a clear signal that rsi is making space for nifty ot climb further.

Then the nifty climbs to D.

So should we now unwind longs at D?

Again, we don't know whether nifty will rally even further.

(Although there is clear divergence between rsi and nifty. rsi has fallen, nifty has climbed)

However, we wait.

But the nifty falls and we unwind longs at Y (lower high) and go short.

(profit in this 2nd leg = 100 points, total profit so far in around 15 days = 170)

=================

Photobucket

We get some anxious moments when nifty climbs to Z after the william%r gives buy signal at J.

We hold the shorts with stop loss equal to height of D (anticipating double top).

Fortunately, nifty starts falling after Z all the way to E.

Notice that this fall is straight and not stepped, meaning thereby that this is a sell-off and not a rally.

This means that divergence is unlikely to happen between rsi adn nifty (as i mentioned earlier, divergence happens after rally and not sell-off)

So we cover shorts at E (profit in this 3rd leg=100 points, total profit so far in around 3 weeks= 270) and initiate fresh longs.

Notice that we have been always in the market, just like SAR.

We have been going long immediately when we cover shorts

and go short immediately when we unwind longs!

This milks the market to max!

=================

Photobucket

At F, rsi reaches near upper extreme and we unwind our longs as this is not a rally but a sharp buy-in (as the rise is straight and not stepped).

We unwind our longs and intiate fresh short.

Profit in this 4th leg = 60 points. total profit till now = 330 points.

=================

Nifty then falls to G when rsi reaches lower extreme.

Notice that william%R is always confirming the right points of buying and selling.

We cover shorts at G and initiate fresh longs.

Profit in this 5th leg = 50. Total profits so far in around 20 days = 380.

=================

Photobucket

From here rsi rises till nifty reaches H.

Since this has not been a straight rise but a stepped one, we should be expecting divergence to appear between rsi and nifty.

so we hold the longs.

Profit so far in this 6th leg =120 points.

total profit in 1 month since start of this analyses = 500.

For one lot this would have given Rs.25000/-.

=================

We have milked the market fluctuation to the max while always being in the market, using rsi supported by william%r.

When u miss the train...

Afraid of missing the train of the new trend about to start?

And thus losing when the new trend doesn't start immediately when u enter, rather the old one is still continuing?

Just like the Bank nifty where correction hasn't started as yet despite the indicators suggesting that it is severely over bought as of now (17th Aug 2010 closing)!

While there is no way to exactly pin point the start of the new trend when indicators are hinting

here is a simple way to avoid the pitfall of jumping into the trade, expecting the new trend, too early!

"When the new trend finally and mercifully starts

and if you are not on it

don't worry

it will retreat a good distance to pick you up."

This way you will not lose the train of the next trend except for a few yards!

e.g. just have a look at the CNX IT chart for 1 month. Here you will notice that from 12.30noon 14th Aug'2010 till 2pm the next day, both rsi as well as william%R were at overbought extremes and you could have erroneously and prematurely entered the short trade much earlier anticipating the down move.

Photobucket

Here, if you were to go as explained above,

though u would have seemingly missed the train at 2 pm on 15th Aug, it would have retreated

to pick u up at around 12.30pm on 16th Aug with hardly any loss of opportunity.

Photobucket

Also, note that by that time both rsi and william%R have started on the new journey (which incidently ended at 9.30am on Aug12th when both rsi and William%R met again at the other extreme.

So, when you missed the train of the new train, don't worry!

Just walk a few steps forward and expect the train to retreat to pick its most valuable commuter...

You!!!

To RSI Sir, with Love!

30th april, 2010 AD

To

Prof.RSI

14/30,

1 month Chart,

Google Finance,

World Wide Web.

----------------------------

Dear Sir,

At the outset I wish to admit that I am a big fan of you and your family of rsi charts (14/1w, 14/1d and 14/2min).

I read your interview yesterday at mudraa that you trade alone. And that your family is self sufficient in estimating the trend and timing the market.

Being your longstanding admirer, I totally agree with what you said.

But, Sir, I have a longstanding desire to work with you.

I want to be your assistant.

Please let me be in your team. I shall be indebted forever for your this act of kindness!

Every great Singer, Musician, Magician, Sportsman, Politician, Godman, etc has someone as assistant. Why not you, sir!

Just see, how tired you are when you get exhausted at the end of the rally.

Just as one rally ends, another one starts.

Please take me as your assistant.

I will help your students pickup exact points of buying and selling!

You just need to give them approximate signal and I will do the rest,Sir.

Whenever I reach near top of my chart, it will be a "Buy" signal except when you order the continuation of the strong bear rally.

Whenever I reach near bottom of my chart, it will be a a "Sell" signal except when you order the continuation of the strong bull rally.

Sir, I will totally obey your rally signals.

My signals during your special orders can be ignored, Sir!

Also, sir, whenever you get exhausted near the ends of the rally, I will signal the exact point of final-exhaustion by banging my head against the ceiling (in case of bear rally) or against the floor (in case of a bull rally).

This way your followers will be able to know your exact point of total exhaustion.

They will profit more and bless you, Sir.

During your rangebound movement, I will signal your every turn by banging my head against the ceiling or floor, as the case may be.

Whenever you wish to reverse your direction as a light-hearted bluff during a rally, I will drop the hint to your followers by banging my head again!

Don't worry, Sir! My head will not hurt. I wear helmet all the time!

Please don't ignore my application.

Pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssse hire me!

with deep regards,

your obedient indicator,

William %R
