Stochastic RSI
A stochastic applied to RSI instead of price — a more sensitive read of overbought/oversold extremes.
How to read it
Stochastic RSI applies the Stochastic formula to RSI instead of price — an 'oscillator of an oscillator'. It runs 0–100 with a %K and %D line and is far more sensitive than plain RSI, reaching the 20/80 extremes much more often.
Trading signals
Read it like the Stochastic: a %K/%D cross out of the oversold zone is a long cue, out of overbought a short/exit. Its sensitivity means more signals but more noise — it shines for timing entries inside a trend you've already confirmed with a slower tool.
Parameters
SRSI RSI Length is the RSI it's built on; SRSI Stochastic Length is the stochastic window over that RSI; SRSI K and D smooth the two output lines. Longer values tame its natural jumpiness.
