RSI calculating wrong values

Open sajuuk31 opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Hello, thanks for your incredible work.

I'm having issues with the .rsi method. It seems that it calculates very differently than the one on TradingView and other website.

I investigated a bit further and it looks like it's the EMA that's computed differently but the code looks similar, any idea?

Thanks for your help.

After some research it appears that the RSI is currently calculated using an average and not an RMA (or modified EMA with 1/period as multiplier).

Will work on a new rsi version and propose it if successful.

Thanks, I look forward to seeing what you come up with.
