The following legend is provided as a 'general' guideline to understanding and interpreting the sentiment percentages gained in the twice monthly surveys. The oversold, neutral, and overbought ranges are not be used as an 'absolute' as general market conditions and extraordinary factors will influence market direction. The oversold readings are indicative of positive or favorable market conditions, the overbought readings are indicative of negative or unfavorable market conditions.
The commentary provided with the Real Sentiment Reports should be utilized with this range based information as it will include analysis based upon our expertise in the area of individual investor sentiment. The commentary may 'override' the estimated ranges presented and provide further insight based upon further analysis and market conditions. (Past results are not indicative of future returns. WhisperNumber.com employees make no representations or guarantees. See full disclaimer at the bottom of this page.)
