Multi-Timeframe Volume-Weighted RSI

A multiple timeframe volume-weighted RSI.

Blue Line = Current Time Frame
Orange Line = Select your desired Time Frame

e.g. Blue = Daily, Orange = Weekly

1. Incorporates Market Commitment

Value: By factoring in volume, the volume-weighted RSI captures the intensity of trading activity behind price movements.

Why it’s useful:
Regular RSI measures price momentum but does not differentiate between moves with high or low trading activity.

A volume-weighted RSI assigns greater importance to price changes occurring on high volume, reflecting stronger market conviction.

2. Improved Signal Reliability

Value: Signals generated by a volume-weighted RSI (e.g., overbought or oversold conditions) may be more reliable because they account for the level of trader participation.

Why it’s useful:
Low-volume price movements often result in false signals or "noise."

A volume-weighted RSI helps filter out such noise, reducing the likelihood of false breakouts or fake reversals.

3. Better Divergence Detection

Value: Divergences between price action and the RSI (bullish or bearish divergences) are more meaningful when confirmed by volume.

Why it’s useful:
Regular RSI might show divergence in price momentum, but this divergence might lack substance if the underlying volume is weak.

A volume-weighted RSI ensures that divergence signals align with periods of significant market participation.

4. Enhanced Trend Analysis

Value: Trends supported by strong volume are given more weight, helping traders better identify and follow trends.

Why it’s useful:
Regular RSI might show overbought or oversold signals prematurely during strong trends.
Volume-weighted RSI considers whether trends are backed by significant market activity, helping avoid early exits.

5. More Meaningful Overbought/Oversold Levels

Value: Levels like 70 (overbought) and 30 (oversold) are more credible when supported by volume.

Why it’s useful:
In a regular RSI, overbought or oversold levels might occur on light trading, leading to false reversals.

A volume-weighted RSI ensures these levels are triggered by substantial market participation, increasing their reliability.

Practical Applications:

Trend Confirmation: Use the volume-weighted RSI to confirm whether momentum in a trend is supported by strong participation.

Divergence Spotting: Identify divergences with more confidence by prioritizing those with volume support.

Filtering False Breakouts: Avoid entering trades during weak volume phases by focusing on volume-weighted RSI signals.

Limitations:

Market Type Dependency: Its usefulness may diminish in low-volume assets or markets where volume data is unavailable (e.g., forex).
