The optimal entry is under 20 and get ready to book profits over 80. I never buy a positive cross over above the 80 break out or not. The most successful entries are made below 20 to 30. Stochastic The Stochastic is a momentum oscillator developed by Dr. George Lane. The premise behind the Stochastic indicator is that when a stock is rising it tends to close near the high and a falling stock closes near it's low and this is plotted as two lines, the fast stochastic (Black-%K) and slow stochastic (Green-%D). A bullish signal occurs when the (Black-%K) rises through the (Green-%D) when it is below 20. A bearish signal occurs when the (Black-%K) goes under the (Green-%D) above 80. Dr. Lane believes the most important signal occurs when the (Green-%D) and stock price diverge. This is often seen when a stock makes a new high and the (Green-%D) clearly fails to reach or better it's old high. Conversely, a stock is oversold and ready to reverse when it makes a new low but the (Green-%D) fails to confirm that low.
