To do this, you are first looking for a 'cue peak' in your oral readings. A 'cue peak' is one elevated oral reading followed by two lower readings and can mean that you might be gearing up to ovulate in the next 5-7 days or so. Once you've seen this 'cue peak' in your readings, you'll want to use your vaginal readings to help narrow down likely ovulation even further. As you move through that fertile window those vaginal readings will begin to decline, this is where you'll want to start to consider yourself fertile. After likely ovulation has taken place those vaginal readings should rise and remain elevated compared to that low you saw just prior.
Since so many oral readings are missing torwards the beginning your cycle, it's tough to say when that possible 'cue peak' may have happened. It's important that you begin taking those oral reading between CD2-4 at the very latest. Then once all menstrual bleeding has stopped you'll want to add in those vaginal readings. This means you'll be taking both oral and vaginal readings all throughout your cycle.
It does look like you saw declining vaginal readings through CD 19 and that rise on CD 20 - a possible ovulation trend. If ovulation was successful here you'll want to see those readings remain elevated compared to that low you saw on CD 19 has they have been.
I hope this help make things make a bit more sense. Let me know if I can clear anything up further :)
