Before putting this topic to bed let me make several comments.
>>This is quite different from the way OB/OS are commonly defined
which is in terms of extremes in momentum. Price targets do not
provide this information. Apples and oranges. <<
I consider OB/OS, price targets, time targets, EWT, et al to all be
regression to the mean type of indicators. While they are measures of
the same thing, they are independent of each other and can be used in
combination for improved results.
Since I gave my opinion of price level indicators, let me do the same
for momentum indicators. I have 2 problems with them. They are digital
filters and suffer their short comings. They are lagging which means
they generate signals late and most have fixed look back periods so
they are tuned to particular frequencies (market cycles). When they
are in tune with a dominant market cycle, they work well; otherwise,
they don't work so well.
I don't need momentum indicators, I can see momentum changes directly
on the price charts without any lag. I don't need to worry about look
back periods, my mind seems to key in on the dominant cycle on the
chart without me thinking about it. I just knew all that screen time
would pay off <g>.
There are things I cannot see directly on price charts. For example,
statistical things like Std Error Bands. I also need a consistant
point of reference to gauge trend strength because of the variations
in chart scales (this is the biggest problem with a lot of Gann's stuff).
>>many of the things that Tucker poo-poos are routinely used
successfully by traders (e.g., spreads which he concluded cannot beat
T-bills - LOL) so I would take his conclusions with a grain of salt.<<
For the most part Tucker does not say you cannot trade successfully
with the things he criticizes. In fact he points out that even a
random line drawn on a chart has value as a point of reference. With
today's low commissions, good trade management and good money
management almost anything can be traded successfully but why make
things hard on yourself by using indicators with known short comings
when you don't have to?

This is quite different from the way OB/OS are commonly defined which
is in terms of extremes in momentum. Price targets do not provide
this information. Apples and oranges. However, one is free to define
anything in anyway but communication will tend to breakdown.

response to my rhetorical question "Why is this", the correlation has
nothing to do with regression to the mean which perhaps reflects your
definition of OB/OS. The fact is that nobody know "Why is this"
although as I indicated a range of possibilities have been proposed.

stuff is usually problematic. There are a "zillion" Fibonacci levels,
Gann levels, S&R levels, etc. which are nothing more than heads-up
levels. Without input from something else there is no justification
to assume that a particular level is "the" level. In addition, one
has to define how much slop is allowed around a level before it is
invalidated and even how a pivot is defined. These simple boundary
conditions can and do vary considerably between traders. However, if
you are satisfied that Fibonacci is of no value then so be it (I'm not
in the missionary business). Suffice it to say that of the traders,
newsletters, blogs, etc. that I am aware of your view is at best a
minority opinion - but that's OK. Your use of Fibonacci did not work
for some reason but that does not mean that others do not use it in a
way that is beneficial. Similarly, I doubt that floor traders would
agree with Tucker's analysis of their pivots because they undoubtedly
use them in a way that works for them which Tucker does not take into
account. In fact, many of the things that Tucker poo-poos are
routinely used successfully by traders (e.g., spreads which he
concluded cannot beat T-bills - LOL) so I would take his conclusions
with a grain of salt.
