This research is a population study using panel data in the form of daily closing values over 12 years of the Indonesia Sharia Stock Index movement. The data was processed using a technical analysis approach with two momentum indicators, MACD and RSI, to obtain buy and sell signals based on the principles of each indicator, applied to the ISSI. The use of the MACD and RSI technical indicators on the ISSI shows that MACD yielded a profit of 207% with a success rate (win rate) of 72%, while RSI provided a profit of 125% with a win rate of 55%.
