Overview
Oscillators work on the premise that markets tend to over extend
themselves on both sides of the scale. Whether these extreme conditions
are described as overbought or oversold (momentum), strength (trend) or
something else, it is when these extremes are reached that it is
assumed the market is in a position to begin a correction (minor or
major). These extreme values in oscillators tell us when to be watchful
of the ever dreaded and inevitable trend reversal.
Oscillators also give us information about the general trend. As trend
analysis works with the price line, it is also a valuable part of
analyzing an oscillator. This is where part of the "predictive"
abilities of oscillators are seen. These events are also known as
convergences and divergences. This is when the trend of the oscillator
has broken before the price trend, and they are no longer moving in
parallel.

Conventional indicators eventually fail - including stochastics.
Learn arcs.
Good luck,
