Relative Strength Index (RSI) – FX Replay Guide
The RSI in FX Replay is a momentum oscillator that helps you gauge whether the market is overbought or oversold—key for spotting potential reversals and timing entries and exits.
Key RSI Levels
- Above 70 = Overbought: Watch for potential pullbacks or short setups.
- Below 30 = Oversold: Watch for potential rebounds or long setups.
- Around 50 = Neutral: Can act as a trend confirmation line
(above 50 = bullish bias, below 50 = bearish bias)

How to Use RSI in FX Replay
- Trend Confirmation
Use RSI crossing above or below 50 to support directional bias - Divergence
Look for price moving one way and RSI the other
e.g., Bullish divergence = lower lows in price + higher lows in RSI - Entry/Exit Triggers
Use RSI levels in combination with your strategy rules
(e.g., buy on oversold confirmation, sell on overbought fade)
Strategy Testing with RSI
- Use FX Replay’s backtesting tools to test RSI-based systems on historical price data
- Change RSI settings (default = 14) to see how faster/slower values (e.g., 9 or 10) impact performance
- Combine RSI with other indicators (like MA, MACD) to filter for higher-probability setups
Pro Tip
RSI alone isn’t a signal—it’s a context tool.
In FX Replay, always confirm RSI insights with price action, support/resistance levels, or other indicators before placing trades.
