Jerome, the TA I use [sometimes] gives no buy signal for AMAT right now. That's because it only detects a trend and
the trend is down. But that's typical: most types of TA give you a buy signal only after a turn-around.

Even when a signal comes it could be a trap. Like
a few days ago when AMAT topped 50.

I look at the 30 week moving average, mostly. Very simple, but it doesn't predict.
