Random article: Jobless Claims
Jobless claims is an economic indicator used in fundamental analysis of the Forex market. It shows number of people in the USA, who submitted their initial claim for unemployment benefit. The data on initial claims is published every week on Thursdays at 08:30 a.m EST. The statistics on other countries is also published on a weekly basis, but at present are less indicative for experts than the US data. In particular, analysts pay attention to Jobless claims figure in Great Britain, which is published at 08:30 a.m at London time.
Relative Volatility Index was elaborated by Donald Dorsey in 1993 and introduced in “ Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities” magazine. RVI is not a separate indicator; it is used to confirm signals and improve trading systems. This index measures forces of volatility movement. It does not duplicate signals of other oscillators, but just confirms them. RVI and Relative Strength Index are very much alike, but they additionally demonstrate highest and lowest points of price of standard deviation in a certain range. RVI is calculated in a way similar to calculation of RSI, but here 10-days' standard deviation of close price is taken instead of change of price.
