Overbought:
A stock or commodity market condition where there has been significant trading bidding up prices to higher levels, levels which seem overextended
In technical analysis, it is a market in which the volume of buying that has occurred is greater than the fundamentals justify
A technical opinion that the market price has risen too steeply and too fast in relation to underlying fundamental factors
A technical condition that occurs when prices are considered too high and susceptible to a decline. Overbought conditions can be classified by analyzing the chart pattern or with indicators such as the Stochastic Oscillator and Relative Strength Index (RSI). A sharp advance from $15 to $30 in 2 weeks might lead a technician to believe that a security is overbought. Or, a security is sometimes considered overbought when the Stochastic Oscillator exceeds 80 and when the Relative Strength Index (RSI) exceeds 70. It is important to keep in mind that overbought is not necessarily the same as being bearish. It merely infers that the stock has risen too far too fast and might be due for a pullback.
A term used to describe a market or a stock that has appreciated so rapidly and has generated such excessively bullish sentiment that a near-term decline is highly likely
A physical asset or futures contract whose prices have been pushed up to a level that some believe is unrealistically high and cannot be sustained ie. when the speculative long interest has rapidly increased and the speculative short interest is sharply reduced
Oversold:
A term used to describe a technical opinion of a market has declined too steeply and too fast in relation to underlying fundamental factors
An analytical term for a stock that is underpriced
a condition of the marked after an abrupt recession. In this situation a correction rise is possible
A technical condition that occurs when prices are considered too low and ripe for a rally. Oversold conditions can be classified by analyzing the chart pattern or with indicators such as the Stochastic Oscillator and Relative Strength Index (RSI). A sharp decline from 30 to 15 in 2 weeks might lead a technician to believe that a security is oversold. Or, a security is sometimes considered oversold when the Stochastic Oscillator is less than 20 and when the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is less than 30. It is important to keep in mind that oversold is not necessarily the same as being bullish. It merely infers that the security has fallen too far too fast and may be due for a reaction rally.
The reverse of overbought. A single security or a market which, it is believed, has declined to an unreasonable level
A market which has fallen too far and too fast under excessive selling pressure and is expected to move back to a higher, more neutral level
Used in the context of general equities. Technically too low in price, and hence a technical correction is expected. Antithesis of overbought
A physical asset or futures contract whose prices have been pushed down to a level that some believe is unrealistically low and cannot be sustained ie. when the speculative long interest has been drastically diminished and the speculative short interest increases.
An equity (or market) that has gone down to which its valuation seems to support buying of the stock.
Swing Trading:
Opposite of daytrading. Swing Traders speculate longer term on prices of stocks, futures, etc.
This term is typically used to imply a style where one takes a position for several days to a few weeks. A swing trade might be completed in less than a week, or if the stock consolidates it might take several weeks. While a swing trader will watch the market very closely, this style does not require the trader to be in front a computer screen while the market is open. A swing trader will typically aim for a 10-15% profit on all trades.
Swing trading is commonly defined as a stock, index, or commodities trading practice whereby the instrument is bought or sold at or near the end of an up or down price swing caused by daily or weekly price volatility. A swing trade position is typically open longer than a day, but shorter than trend following trades or buy and hold investment strategies. Swing traders engage in prospecting changes in an instrument's price caused by oscillations between its price being bid up by optimism and alternatively being bid down by pessimism over a period of a few days, weeks, or months. Profits can be sought by engaging in either Long or Short trading
Identifying whether a market is currently trending higher or lower, or trading sideways and when this will change is a challenge for many swing trading and long-term trend following trading strategies
Swing traders do not need perfect timing - to buy at the bottom, and sell at the top of price oscillations. Small consistent earnings that involve strict money management rules can compound returns significantly.
Most important is to understand that there is no foolproof mathematical model or algorithm that will always work so only use them as research tools not decision making engines.
