As per my knowledge the short term market is not
driven by fundamental but human’s behavior. Say I have
to buy a car and trying hard than one day my stock
appreciated handsomely & that evening I came to home
driving my new car only to know that my stock’s RSI or
STOCH… is just bottoming out. 

Take a look in AFL Library for an indicator SWIM INDEX
coded by me. 
There is no overbought/oversold limit, no time limit
but only to know whether I have sold my stock as per
my experience or my emotion. You can see the FEAR of
missing profit in my above mentioned trade. You just
have to look for a cross of relatively significant
peak or 
Bottom and get ready for trend reversal in next two
days or at least pause in trend.

If you’re day trader, please take a look attached Jpg.
