Overbought/Oversold

Assuming that the medium term trend is down it's preferable to look for shorts when the Detrended Oscillator gets above the zero (current prices), or when it gets into the overbought area (10-20 pips above the current price level - this rougly corresponds to 0.9938 fib resistance).
