Author Message :
The Volume-Weighted RSI takes a new approach to the traditional calculation of the RSI in using a price::volume calculation. As some traders consider volume to be a leading indicator for price, the volume-weighted RSI can come in handy if you want to visualize volume easier.

Great study. As of now the signal line usually stays between 65 and 25 occasionally going above or below. Is there a way to expand it so it fluctuates between 100 and 0 or 90/10? I realize that moves everything up, and occasionally it will go above 100 and below 0, but it would really help me combine it with other studies. Thank you Samer800
