RSI, MACD, and KDJ are technical indicators commonly used in financial markets to analyze price trends and identify potential buy or sell signals. Here's what each term means:

1. RSI (Relative Strength Index)

Purpose: Measures the strength and speed of a security's price movement.

How it Works: RSI ranges from 0 to 100 and is often used to identify overbought or oversold conditions:

Overbought: RSI above 70 suggests the asset might be overbought, indicating a potential price correction.

Oversold: RSI below 30 suggests the asset might be oversold, indicating a potential price increase.

Application: Traders use RSI to gauge momentum and predict reversals.

2. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)

Purpose: Identifies changes in the strength, direction, momentum, and duration of a trend.

Components:

MACD Line: Difference between the 12-day and 26-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs).

Signal Line: A 9-day EMA of the MACD line.

Histogram: Represents the difference between the MACD line and the Signal line.

How it Works:

Bullish Signal: MACD crosses above the Signal line.

Bearish Signal: MACD crosses below the Signal line.

Application: Traders use MACD for trend-following and momentum-based trading strategies.

3. KDJ (K%, D%, J% Indicator)

Purpose: A stochastic oscillator that measures momentum and potential turning points in an asset's price.

Components:

K% Line: Reflects the current closing price relative to the high-low range over a set period.

D% Line: A moving average of the K% line.

J% Line: Calculated as 3×K−2×D3×K−2×D, providing sharper signals.

How it Works:

Overbought: When K%, D%, or J% is above 80.

Oversold: When K%, D%, or J% is below 20.

The crossovers of these lines can indicate potential entry or exit points.

Summary

RSI focuses on price momentum and overbought/oversold levels.

MACD is a trend-following momentum indicator using moving averages.

KDJ refines stochastic signals with an additional line for sharper analysis.
