To what extent should the RSI be relied on? before Christmas I made a watchlist very inefficiently, based solely on RSI and I had a few do well [+15%], and I use 7% stop losses, but then I move it up to 15%-20% and let the price dance above the tight stop losses to protect my profit. I just paid for membership a few hours ago and now have a bunch of sub-30 RSI(15) stocks at my disposal. What are they other indicators I should be using in conjunction with RSI? Would one be MACD?
My concern with RSI is that I noticed that even though it can get below 30, it isn't always the best time to take a position as there may be a further PPS decline.
Thanks,
Korzym

Well, try:
RSI(2) is below 1
Or for a few more picks something like:
RSI(2) is below 5
This should show stocks with short-term oversold conditions.

What kind of returns have you recieved using them? I came accross one stock that has RSI(2) at 0, LAVA, does anyone else see this as an excellent & safe opportunity?

a bottom RSI(2)dragger under 1 like LAVA has been the last 5 days is usually a great play ONCE the stock catches green and holds it,that's the catch,make sure it has a green hold,a minus to LAVA is that it usually doesn't have real great day range so the pop you get over a few days might not be as good as the ones you find like this that have historically nice dayrange

Thanks for the tips
Thats the problem I'm having, oversold RSI(15) stocks are easy to find but what are other{more} signs that point towards stabilization and an uptrend?

korzym....
Look for POSITIVE DIVERGENCE... in the case of rsi(2), that would be when a lower price makes a higher RSI(2).
Look at a 3 month chart showing RSI(2) for MANU.
On Jan 5, 2005 the price is lower than Jan 3 but the RSI(2) for Jan 5 is higher than it was on Jan 3.
When you see that it's time to LOAD THE BOAT!!
MAY ALL YOUR FILLS BE COMPLETE.

What's the filter you used to find that one? I think I'll hold OVTI a few more days, looks like its bouncing back

I don't want to get ahead of myself, so what do you think of: VGZ, ARTX, SKIL, SWKS, and PUMP. PUMP is similar to LAVA because it's RSI(2) is also 0, RSI(15) is a little higher though: 21.6-compared to LAVA's 16.8.
This is the elementary filter that I ran to find those:
Show stocks where RSI(15) crossed below 30.00 within the last 8 days
and RSI(2) is below .7
and Average Volume(90) is above 50000
and close is between 1 and 15
I also ran LAVA through the stock screener which had it ranked as 61% bullish. So what are your thoughts on those stocks?
