How we compute it
Formula
RS = Wilder average gain (14) ÷ Wilder average loss (14)
RSI = 100 − 100 ÷ (1 + RS)- Wilder’s RSI over 14 periods of 1-hour (and 4-hour) closes from the stored candles (exchange trade candles, Hyperliquid mark candles where no trade candles exist).
How to read it

Common mistakes
- Reading RSI above 70 as a sell signal. It says recent gains dominated; a strong trend can keep it there for a long time.
Honest limits
- It describes past prices, it is not a forecast.
- Different candle sources can give slightly different values.
