BIDU is a frisky player and volitile , yet you might have seen me shorting it before up here ...the reason is clear here on the daily chart , BIDU's a good example of what that link & last paragraph is trying to explain.
See the RSI at the top of this chart going into the OB area above 70 ? It often signals a top and trend reversal and for this time frame an exhaustion area where traders in the stock will consider selling and taking profs . (and shorts shorting it there too)
BIDU pulled back to $83 today making for a 7~8pt gain had you caught and shorted BIDU @ that $91+ area up in the OB/RSI , which rarely lies . And its so easy for us to communicate about a stock during the day with a simple -->OB or OS remark.
* Very powerful indicator of when a stok has fallen too far , or has gotten too ahead of itself...see that touch into the blue above 70 reading . Not that difficult really , you can make money both ways too !
