As a general rule, no single indicator should be used to base trading decisions on. Two or more indicators should be used to confirm trading decisions. The more indicators that confirm a trend, the more weight any results should be given in the buy/sell decision making process. These interpretations are based on the technical analysis community and should never be taken as to give advice on buying and selling of securities directly without confirming research from other sources.
