>> Would you "bookend" that thought with what you would be looking for as the sell signals? <<

This depends on whether you are a long term investor or a short term investor.

With regard to the Relative Strength Indicator, the 50 line will often serve as a line of resistance. The short term investor may want to sell here and wait for another opportunity.

The longer term investor might want to wait until the stock rises above 70, levels out and falls below the 70 line. (You may want to watch the weekly charts vs. the daily charts for these sell signals.)

The MACD line crossing below the 9 day EMA line is an indication of the trend reversing.

The two indicators above would be my confirmation after seeing a trend reversal pattern on the candlestick chart.

You can trade with the indicators by themselves, but I prefer the candlesticks telling me what is going on and using the indicators for confirmation.

Here is an example of sell signals out the yang,yang. All of the indicators are turning down from an overbought range.

I hope this helps.
