What are the best tools/indicators to determine if the market is oversold or overbought?

Thanks,
Tom

Fetcher[
/* overbought */

and RSI(2) above 99
and weekly RSI(2) above 99

add column rsi(2)
add column weekly rsi(2)

draw rsi(2)
draw weekly RSI(2) on plot rsi(2)
]



Fetcher[
/* oversold */

RSI(2) < 1
and weekly RSI(2) < 1

add column rsi(2)
add column weekly rsi(2)

draw rsi(2)
draw weekly RSI(2) on plot rsi(2)
]



Also look for divergence between price and rsi(2). Those filters are posted elsewhere.

HTH.

TRO,

Thanks, your filters are excellent as always and will be very usefull. My question though was really how to determine if the market as a whole is overbought or oversold. What indicators would one use to determine that?

Thanks again...

Tom

Fetcher[
set{xx,count(open equals ind(qqqq, open),1) * count(volume equals ind(qqqq, volume),1)}

set{xy,count(open equals ind(dia, open),1) * count(volume equals ind(dia, volume),1)}

set{xz,count(open equals ind(spy, open),1) * count(volume equals ind(spy, volume),1)}

set{yy, xx + xy}
set{yz, xz + yy}

set{T10, count(10 day slope of the close above 0,1)}
set{T60, count(60 day slope of the close above 0,1)}
set{T200, count(200 day slope of the close above 0,1)}

Set{u1, T200 * 1}
Set{u2, T60 * 10}
Set{u3, T10 * 100}

Set{uu, u1 + u2}
Set{TREND, uu + u3}

yz equal 1

add column TREND
add column rsi(2)
add column weekly rsi(2)

draw rsi(2)
draw weekly rsi(2) on plot draw rsi(2)
do not draw yz
]



Is this what you had in mind?

TRO,

How many "gold stars" have you racked up with your award-winning scripting? I wish I had just 2% of your scripting intellect.

That said, what does a Trend of 11 mean? What are your thoughts on overbought/oversold extremes ... what would those numbers be?
