the best short term indicator??

http://www.tradingmarkets.com/.site/stocks/commentary/editorial/2-Period-RSI.cfm


We consider the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to be one of the best indicators available. There are a number of books and articles written about RSI, how to use it, and the value it provides in predicting the short-term direction of stock prices. Unfortunately, few, if any, of these claims are backed up by statistical studies. This is very surprising considering how popular RSI is as an indicator and how many traders rely upon it.

Most traders use the 14-period RSI, but our studies have shown that statistically, there is no edge going out that far. However, when you shorten the timeframe you start seeing some very impressive results. Our research shows that the most robust and consistent results are obtained by using a 2-period RSI and we have built many successful trading systems that incorporate the 2-period RSI.

Before getting to the actual strategy, here’s a little background on the RSI and how it’s calculated.

If you like the 2-period RSI, then you'll love the 1-period RSI even more. :D

How come you don't use any of the "successful systems" in your journal?

Just draw trendlines, horizontal support and resistance and watch for divergences

But it's useful for VST, not ST
