So, what's your point? Buy more, sell, or what. We value you opinion so don't just present data. We can do that on Yahoo!

Agreed papagiki...overbought conditions can remain in place for quite a while, and oversold doesn't mean it's time to buy.

The writers are factual and non-committal, merely pointing to conditions that possibly warrant stop loss protection, or positions to montior for entry points.
