RSI Crypto Strength (Asset vs BTC)

The "RSI Crypto Strength" is an advanced analysis tool built on a fundamental pillar of the cryptocurrency market: for an altcoin to achieve exponential bullish performance, it must invariably be and remain stronger than Bitcoin itself.

The primary objective of this indicator is to quantify and reinforce this thesis. It provides a clear and immediate view of the relative strength of any cryptocurrency in direct comparison with the market leader, Bitcoin. This relative strength can be identified on any timeframe. This also reinforces a scenario where a cryptocurrency that is weaker than Bitcoin is prone to sideways movements and downturns.

Key Features

This indicator combines multiple tools into a single solution:

> Dual RSI Plot: Simultaneously visualizes the RSI of the asset on the chart (dynamic) and the RSI of Bitcoin (blue line).
> Strength Delta (Asset vs. BTC): The heart of the indicator. A panel displays the exact difference (Asset RSI - Bitcoin RSI).
- Green: The asset has more RSI strength than Bitcoin.
- Red: The asset has less RSI strength than Bitcoin.
> Dynamic Coloring and Area Fill: The asset's RSI line and the background area automatically change color to highlight critical zones:
- Green (Overbought): RSI above 70.
- Red (Oversold): RSI below 30.
- Orange (Neutral): RSI between 30 and 70.
> Integrated Moving Average: A Moving Average line (gray) is plotted directly on the asset's RSI, serving as a signal line or to smooth momentum. The type (SMA, EMA, WMA, etc.) and period are fully customizable.
> Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Support: You can configure the indicator to display data from a higher timeframe (e.g., "1H") while analyzing a lower timeframe chart (e.g., "5m").
> Customizable Panel and Labels:
- A Delta Panel that can be enabled/disabled and moved to any of the four corners of the indicator.
- Labels at the end of the lines (Asset, BTC, MA) for easy identification, which can also be enabled/disabled.
> Alert-Ready: The indicator exposes the 4 main data sources for creating alerts.

How to Use

> Thesis Validation (Higher Timeframes): This is the primary use. Before looking for entries, use the indicator on timeframes like the H4, Daily, or Weekly. Confirm that the Asset (orange/green line) is consistently above Bitcoin (blue line) and that the Delta is positive. This is your structural strength validation, confirming the asset has potential for an exponential rally.

> Delta Analysis: The "Delta (Asset - BTC)" panel is your immediate strength metric. A positive and rising value indicates the asset is outperforming Bitcoin. A negative and falling value indicates relative weakness.

> Line Crossovers (Timing): On lower timeframes, watch for crossovers between the Asset line and the Bitcoin line. A cross of the Asset line above the Bitcoin line is a clear sign that the asset's momentum is gaining strength.

> Signal Confluence: Look for high-probability scenarios. For example: The Asset's RSI crosses above the Bitcoin RSI while the Delta also crosses above 0.

> Market Extremes: Use the area fill to quickly identify when the asset reaches extreme overbought (>70) or oversold (<30) levels, regardless of what Bitcoin is doing.

Alerts

This indicator is fully prepared for alert creation. When setting up an alert in TradingView, you can select the following data sources from this indicator:

> RSI Asset: Alerts on the RSI value of the asset on the chart.
> RSI Bitcoin: Alerts on the RSI value of Bitcoin.
> Moving Average: Alerts on the value of the Moving Average.
> RSI Delta: Allows creating alerts based on the difference between the two. (e.g., "Alert if RSI Delta crosses above Value 0").
