With oscillators, performance depends on the filtering in your strategy and your exit strategy. Oscillators give good signals when a stock is ranging or in a weak trend. In a stronger trend, cyclic oscillator signals are drowned out by the trend, and are just noisy. In a strong trend, you should be by and hold, not RTM. For short term trading while trending use Bands (Bollinger, Keltner, etc.) to get good RTM signals, or do pullbacks, don't rely on cycles.
