I look at the line studies and actual number (i.e. 52).. the reference line is typically 20 is bottom signfiying oversold and 80 is high range signalling overbought. Its actually the STOCHASTICS that interest me much more as leading indicator. Setting %K (fast stoch) stochastic at 7 with a smoothing of 4, and 10 period %D (slow stoch) stochastic I get a better and stronger signal. Usually the signals are good for more than one day. I also use metastock charts with Aroons, true range, VHF, MFI, speed regression lines when standard deviation just won't do (when the stock is vastly oversold you won't get a tight trading range so you have to look to retracement of 1/3 of high at least for some form of 'breakout' or buy trigger. I also usually use Mass Index instead of ADX, r-squared, historical volatility, parabolic sar but I wouldn't put those on SI. I run them in the background and for end of day.
