Parabolic SAR has switched over from a "Go Short" signal to a "Go Long" signal (this indicator switches back and forth a lot). MACD hasn't yet switched to a "buy" signal, but it's headed in that direction.

I prefer to buy when both of these indicators switch from sell to buy. They are similar in nature (both based on exponential moving averages) but are constructed differently. The way I figure it, when they both switch to "buy", you're getting a nice, strong buy signal.

On the other hand, I was pretty sure, based on simply looking at the price chart (with no news releases), that I should be buying when PZZA dipped intra-day into the high $38's. I was too slow to cash in then, but I wanted to see how far the price would rise from there before I got a buy signal from either or both indicators.

I'm going to set a limit order at $40 1/2 & see if it can't get filled sometime soon. Otherwise, I'll be jealous of all the money you guys are making with me on the sideline!
