Thomas re Advance-Decline Line, << Can you give me a brief definitiion of Advance-Decline Line >> The A/D line is calculated by cumulating the # stocks advancing - # of stocks declining, usually on a daily basis. When a market is trending, this chart will be very similar in shape and in coincident peaks and valleys to the index chart. When a market is breaking trend, there is often a divergence between the index and the A/D chart. For example, the Dow or S&P may be making new highs while the A/D chart is declining, which indicates fewer and fewer stocks are moving the market. You can do much the same thing by comparing the Dow or S&P to the broader NYSE index or the Russell 2000 index. Hope this helps. John
