How the Bitcoin RSI Chart works

Plots Bitcoin's 14-period RSI with Wilder smoothing on daily, weekly or monthly candles, with reference lines at 70 and 30, so you can compare momentum conditions across timeframes.

What you enter

  • Timeframe selector: Daily, Weekly, Monthly

What it shows

  • RSI14 line for the chosen timeframe with dashed lines at 70 (overbought) and 30 (oversold)
  • Current RSI value and zone label: Overbought (≥ 70), Oversold (≤ 30) or Neutral

How to use it

  1. Select Daily, Weekly or Monthly.
  2. Read the current RSI value and its zone below the chart.
  3. Check how long RSI has stayed above 70 or below 30.
  4. Switch timeframes to see whether they agree.
  5. Compare RSI peaks with price peaks to spot divergences.

Formula

Change = close − previous close. Initial average gain/loss = simple average of the first 14; afterwards, average = (previous average × 13 + current) / 14 (Wilder). RS = average gain / average loss; RSI = 100 − 100 / (1 + RS).

Worked example

If the Wilder average gain is 2.0 and the average loss is 1.0, RS = 2.0 and RSI = 100 − 100 / 3 ≈ 66.7, in the neutral zone (between 30 and 70).

How to read the result

  • Weekly and monthly extremes are rarer and more meaningful than daily ones.
  • In strong trends, RSI can stay above 70 or below 30 for a long time.
  • Bearish divergence: price makes a higher high while RSI makes a lower high.

Limits and cautions

  • Overbought does not mean price must fall; oversold does not mean it must rise.
  • The daily view covers only about the last 500 days.
  • Weekly and monthly views use exchange candles only, from August 2017 onward, so earlier cycles are not included.

Common questions

What is a good RSI for Bitcoin?

There is no good value; RSI describes momentum. By convention, readings above 70 are called overbought and below 30 oversold, but both can persist.

Daily or weekly RSI: which matters more?

They answer different questions. Daily shows short-term swings; weekly and monthly show cycle-scale momentum and produce fewer, slower signals.

What period does this RSI use?

14 periods of the chosen timeframe with Wilder smoothing, calculated by the site from exchange closes.
