I have a question about oscillators. Does anyone use them? I was following a few stocks this week and the slow stochastic was registering "bullish" while the stock was going up and has now switched to "bearish" now that it has gone down about 4 !

It seems as if oscillators are secondary indicators. Or that they are secondary to price movement. If I were to "buy now" I would have missed 4 of the move.

Opinions? Of course I could always enter when the stock moved back up to resistance, but as of right now, that is beside the point.
