RSI indicator shows bullish divergence on the upside
RSI is one of the most popular technical indicators used in the market. It helps determine overbought and oversold conditions. It can also be used for identifying trends in the market. In conjunction with Bollinger’s bands, RSI provides a visual way to observe market strength.
When RSI values rise above 30, traders expect to see overbought conditions. Conversely, when RSI values fall below 30, traders can expect to see oversold conditions. In addition, the indicator uses a standardized extreme range approach, which makes understanding the signal easier.
Divergence is a technical term that describes when the price and a technical indicator move in opposite directions. It can signal positive or negative movements but is not a predictor of reversals. Generally, divergence is most effective when spotted in short-term charts. However, it can be seen in other time frames as well.
In the case of NKLA, an example of a bullish divergence occurs when RSI lows and MACD highs increase. It can be seen in the chart below.
NKLA stock is on a support zone with a resistance zone of 35% to the upside
NKLA is catching the attention of traders. The stock has been in a downward trend for a very long time. It is currently sitting in a support zone.
A support level is a price level at which demand usually outnumbers supply. It is a crucial concept for technical analysts. A resistance level is the opposite, with more selling at a particular price level creating a more robust resistance level.
A support and resistance zone is a price area that can be identified using moving averages or trend lines. It can also be determined by looking at pivot points, which identify the highest and lowest prices on a given trading day.
The best way to approach a support or resistance zone is to determine your trade style. For example, do you prefer to wait for a confirmation signal, or do you want to close out your business at a breakeven point?
If you are a professional trader, you will likely place orders around critical levels. These orders are typically placed in zones that defend these key levels.
