Esteban; RE:" Factoring in Volume..."

yeah I think we're both interested in that METASTOCK thingy where the candlesticks' thickness is adjusted by volume, Esteban. Might mess up trend lines if it really distorts the time scale, though. I sent those folks an order for the package today, so it should get over here in France in 3 weeks or so. What's the least-cost way to update price data into this package? Wish it would just go out to the WWWeb and grab free quotes offa some service or something.

I don't know how to factor in the expected low volume on Friday.
I still feel the price swings just as intensely, low volume not
withstanding. Could make it rough on a trend following system. Any
thoughts ?


When the price is going up, and the volume is going down, the price usually falls back, like a wave - or stops going up and starts to consolidate.

More interesting is reading the big block volume... to look for patterns of accumulation or distribution. Judy is into that.

BTW, I think I saw a message to Rainier from somebody who referred to his fondness for "ascending triangles". I *think* they collapse real good, is the reason why...

...GE has a weight of 6.87 on the S&P-100, the largest multiplier of any stock in the OEX index. Take a look at GE,D and GE,195 - and then take a vacation!
