Offer # at $

Fancy Way to Say: Sell so many shares at a specified price While this may have no relevance to internet investors/traders, it is how one would communicate an order to sell to a broker and/or trader. For example, Offer 1,000 XYZ at $100 simply means sell 1,000 shares of XYZ for no less than $100.

Out of the Money

Fancy Way to Say: Not Profitable In the case of a call option, when the price of the security is below the strike price. For a put option, when the price of the security exceeds the strike price.

Overbought/Oversold

Fancy Way to Say: Too Far Too Fast There are many technical indicators which can be used when charting securities. There is a family of indicators called oscillators which signal when a security has moved too far too fast in a particular direction. Overbought indicates a security has run up much more than is usual for the it in a given period of time. Conversely, oversold indicates a security has sold off much more than usual in a given amount of time. The indicator implies the security is due for a breather. Many will interpret a breather as a reversal. That is, a security which is oversold is due for an upside bounce while an overbought security would be due for a decline. However, the way oscillators are designed, an overbought security can leave the overbought area simply by churning sideways for a time. The same holds true for and oversold condition. As with all indicators, it is just one piece of a larger puzzle and its use is often more effective when coupled with other analysis.
