What is MFI?
The Money Flow Index (MFI) is a volume-weighted momentum oscillator that measures the strength of money flowing in and out of a security over a given period. It works similarly to RSI but incorporates volume, making it a more comprehensive momentum measure. Values range from 0 to 100.
MFI values above 80 indicate overbought conditions, while values below 20 indicate oversold conditions. A rising MFI with rising price confirms the trend, while divergence between MFI and price can warn of an impending reversal. The volume component makes MFI particularly effective at detecting trend exhaustion.
