Sorry for the newbie question but... I built a really primitive filter (still learning the system) that says:

close above 20
avg vol(5) above 1000000
and avg vol(30) above 1000000
and draw slow stochastic (14,5) %K

I noticed that the resulting graph for the slow stochastic shades some parts red and shades other parts green. What is the significance of the shading/fill?

stochastic is a bounded oscillator that moves between 0 and 100

lower limit <= 20 [in the GREEN = Oversold]
upper limit >= 80 [in the RED = Overbought]

-

The problem is when a stock is "stuck" in the overbought or oversold area... different ways to look for a solution
1-Some combine a moving average and the stochastic
2-Some combine two stochastics
3-ETC...
