It helps traders identify when the market moves into overbought or oversold territory.
The indicator appears beneath the main price area as a colored signal line that reacts around the 20 and 80 levels.
A green signal appears when the indicator turns upward from the upper level, while an orange signal appears when it turns downward from the lower level.
These signals can be used for both trade entries and exits.
