The RSI can oscillate between zero and 100, but the levels to watch are 30 and 70 - falling below 30 suggests an \"oversold\" condition and rising above 70 suggests a stock is \"overbought.\"The RSI for Nvidia's stock was at 41.81 in recent trading, according to FactSet. While becoming oversold might appear to be good news for bulls, as it would suggest a snapback bounce may be coming, it's more important to put the RSI's moves in context.Many chart watchers believe becoming \"oversold\" is more of an ability than a condition, meaning the ability to become oversold is actually a sign of underlying weakness.When the stock's last downtrend was beginning, with its first close below the 200-DMA in 10 months on Jan. 27, 2022, the RSI had dropped below 30 for the first time since June 2019, which was just before the previous uptrend had started.While an oversold RSI did provide initial support, each subsequent bounce was short lived.And after the stock first closed back above the 200-DMA in December 2022, the RSI stayed above 30 despite a number of sharp pullback during the current uptrend.When the stock tumbled 16.9% to start last September, the RSI bottomed at 31.39, according to FactSet data. When it sank 19.8% from late-March 2024 to mid-April, the RSI troughed at 34.02.And as the stock plunged as much as 26.7% into early-August, which some on Wall Street would say launched a bear market, the lowest the RSI fell to was 33.35.PHOTO: FACTSET, MARKETWATCHIn contrast, the RSI rose above the overbought threshold of 70 multiple times during the current uptrend.If the RSI falls below 30, even if the stock is trading above the 200-DMA, the market's stance on the stock could very well pivot, to selling on rallies from buying on dips, a keen characteristic of a downtrend.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":253,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":[],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"EN","currentLanguage":"EN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"andRepostAutoSelectedFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":38,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ORIG"},"commentList":[],"hasMoreComment":false,"orderType":2}
