In regards to "I watch the stock go lower and lower. and? ...what more could you possibly need to know? " ok here is the thing ... it seems to me that when I used to fool around more with indicators I could change the time frame/look for divergences/look for bottoming indicators that it would be a good time to buy; heck I would even get confirmation from 10 different indicators saying the same thing if I wanted to. But then I would have divergence after divergence or just wiggling of the indicators as the stocks trended lower or what have you. Needless to say I got frustrated with trying to trade off indicators when they would do 'strange' things like this so I decided to set aside the dahl primary trend/ the MACD/ the stochs/the stochRSI/ the RSI/ the ROC/ momentum/ OBV/ I'm not sure what else I used to look at. anyways ... you asked me what I need to know. basically ... How can I trade off indicators reliably when they often give 'false' signals or signals that end up reversing sometimes faster then ... well just fast. Sean
