The RSI shows overbought (above 70) and oversold (below 30) areas.  The current value of the RSI is 42.36.  This is not a topping or bottoming area.    A buy or sell signal is generated when the RSI moves out of an overbought/oversold area.  The last signal was a sell 43 period(s) ago.

Stochastic:
One method of interpreting the Stochastic Oscillator is looking for overbought areas (above 80) and oversold areas (below 20).  The Stochastic Oscillator is 18.48.  This is an oversold reading.  However, a signal is not generated until the Oscillator crosses above 20  The last signal was a sell  4 period(s) ago.

MACD:
The Moving Average Convergence/Divergence indicator (MACD) gives signals when it crosses its 9 period signal line. Currently the MACD is bearish since it is trading below its signal line. The last signal was a sell 1 period(s) ago.
