RSI above 70 does not mean sell. It means the average gain over the lookback has outpaced the average loss by a particular ratio, which in a strong trend is exactly what you would expect and is not a signal to fade.

These lessons give each indicator its actual definition first, then the conditions where its conventional reading holds and where it inverts.

FAQ

Trading indicators: questions

How many indicators lessons are there?
22, and they are all in the MarketPro app. This page lists every one of them. Each lesson takes about 1 minutes to read.
Do I have to pay to read them?
No. The academy is free on every MarketPro account, including free ones, with no lesson cap and no paywall inside the app. On this website the first part of each lesson is open and the rest is in the app, which is where the quizzes and the progress tracking are.
Do I need a broker account to start?
No. The academy, the calculators on this site and the free weekly signals all work without one. A broker account is only needed when you decide to place a real trade, and that decision is yours alone.
