i think that's the problem with most oscillators, a security isn't ob/os if it is trending, although signals in the direction of trend can be a good set-up... which incidentally is what i believe motivates top/bottom pickers, ie. price breaking to a new high/low suddenly looks like a really appealing bargain, only problem is that if it's trending, it'll go higher/lower...

thanks for the response...

which time frames do you find most effective btw...
A close above a swing high completely changes my view from 'way up here' to 'Time to buy more on a pullback'

yup, but accordign to my chart, if it goes more than that 6 against me, it wont give me much of a breathing space anyways lol
