Overview

Relative Strength Index draws the RSI line with horizontal bands at 70, 50 and 30, plus overbought and oversold gradient fills. Optional settings add a smoothing moving average of several types and Bollinger bands around that average. A switch can enable divergence calculation so related alerts can fire; the shown code sets lookback values but does not finish the divergence plots. It does not place trades.
