In Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques, Steve Nison included a section on using candlesticks with oscillators including stochastics, RSI, and moving average oscillator. According to Steve Nison, oscillators are objective and augment the more subjective candlestick patterns.

The relative strength in the formula refers to the ratio of average gain to average loss. These averages are calculated in a way similar to the exponential moving average, before turning the relative strength into an index that fluctuates between 0 and 100.
