Hi Linda, It's probably best to start with an example from the list: symb. rec. price low low delta high delta apx IDTI 9 5/16 9 + 3.47% -39.92% 37 Since IDTI is a familiar stock, we'll use it. Charlie didn't include the 52 week high, but as the list shows, IDTI is almost 40% off its recent high. It's up only 3+% from its low. By combining the two values (subtract the High Delta from the Low Delta) we get the difference. (sign changes because of subtraction) A large positive indicates that the stock is far from its high, but very close to its low. This list is most useful when examining a sector that's already been bashed, I think. Since the tech sector that these stocks are in has been out of favor for some time, the values have real significance. At another time in the market, it might be useful to examine the same study and see if one could identify laggards in the sector. It's always more risky to invest in stocks that arrive late to the party, but still might prove interesting. Hope this helps, Tom
