None of these indicators is ever really correct in a way that can be used for prediction. If they were actually useful, there would be a lot of very rich people made from them. You can construct a bull or bear argument on any given day in history if you cherry pick data, even unintentionally. These indicators are complete wastes of time, tbh.
