I see you have lots of responses so I'll tell you what I do rather than post links....most of which are buried somewhere in my bookmarks and lost forever anyway.

I mess with them, adjusting them every few months and backtesting for applicability. Then I use them as signal filters looking for divergence. Same with RSI. The longer periods on RSI appear to work better on longer time frames and vice versa. For instance, you might use a period (length) of 9 Daily but a period of 14 Weekly and so forth.

I do not care overmuch about the math, what I'm looking for with RSI and Stochastics is divergence between Price and the slopes of the indicators. It's hardly elegant but because oscillators are only signals for entry for me, in sideways markets, all I really wish to have is a fast confirming signal.

Just another point of view.....I imagine if you went to anything written by George Lane you have have more than enough information. Ditto Welles Wilder re: RSI.

What is it with Fridays? Monday I glanced at the markets around 9 Eastern and everything looked fine.....then about 9:30 I realized that my cable feed had shut down just after 9 on the previous Friday, a day that I was out all day.

Now, after typing the above both my cable modems went out. The above was transferrred onto disk and posted using Earthlink on a separate machine. No quotes, no Browser, no cable feed at all out here.

God, I knew there was a reason I hated to trade on Friday.Well, see you later; much later it appears.
