Interpretation Guides

Common Indicator Reads

Indicator	Bullish	Bearish
RSI	< 30 (oversold)	> 70 (overbought)
MACD	Histogram crossing above zero	Histogram crossing below zero
Bollinger Bands	Price touching lower band	Price touching upper band
ADX	> 25 with +DI > -DI	> 25 with -DI > +DI
Stochastic	< 20 (oversold)	> 80 (overbought)

RSI Levels

> 70: Overbought (potential reversal down)
50-70: Bullish momentum
30-50: Bearish momentum
< 30: Oversold (potential reversal up)

MACD Signals

Histogram > 0: Bullish
Histogram < 0: Bearish
Histogram crossing zero: Trend change
MACD line crossing signal line: Buy/sell signal

Bollinger Bands

Price at upper band: Overbought
Price at lower band: Oversold
Bands widening: Increasing volatility
Bands narrowing: Decreasing volatility (squeeze)

Analysis Patterns

Trend confirmation: Use ADX + EMA/SMA. ADX > 25 indicates strong trend. EMA crossing SMA confirms direction.

Overbought/Oversold: Use RSI + Stochastic together. Both confirming increases signal strength.

Divergence: Price making new highs/lows but indicator not confirming = potential reversal.
