amg's market charts and blather
There's quite a bit on this chart, some for targeting, some for learning.
(A) In addition to yesterday's lesson on the Regression Channel to gauge pullbacks, Fibonacci retracements are also helpful. While NOT A RULE, a move off the 38.2 is strong, a move off 50 at times results in sluggish/congestion, and a move below 62 is often weak.
(B) I've arranged the indicators in an order of priority:
(1) Chose a sufficiently long MA (34ema) for direction and a shorter MA (13ema here) for early indication of either trend change or pullback entry opportunity. Other popular combos are 5/25, 9/30, 8/13, etc. Suit your style.
(2) MACD-- This is a trend indicator: strong above Zero, weak below Zero, as I've often written about. 'Divergences' on MACD can be deceptive. When the long (34) MA is UP, the lower MACD 'divergence' is often a 'wind-up', ie, a pullback.
(3) STO -- Not always my favorite as it is very misused and misinterpreted. Best to USE IT WITH THE TREND, ie, a reversal out of oversold when the long (34) MA is UP is a decent buy. One could use it reversing out of overbot in an uptrend as an exit, but you may leave $$ on the table or churn up commissions. Experiment and find your own comfort zone.
(4) RSI -- A favorite of mine, used largely for setting price targets from divergences. The channel zones indicated (45-80 and 35-60) are only rough, draw them in for each market and time.

At last, over the rim
of the waiting earth
the moon lifted with
slow majesty
till it swung clear of the horizon and rode off,
free of moorings
