Last I heard from MBT, spoos volume is not available on RT until the close of the session. This may explain Oz' question as to why Teresa uses Emini vol.

best regards,

ps. Since I started reading IS I have been using ADX. It is VERY helpful as it shows you when a trend is forming, when it is topping and when it is dying. ADX 30 is considered a key area. Below 30 is not trending, above 30 is trending, above 50 is heading for the decay point of the trend. I have seen a stock like YHOO run at 70+ ADX and continue trending higher, but you are talking about hurricane force winds there. Usually ADX of 60 will indicate that a trend turn is near.

For some more insights on ADX, check out the IS closing bell report: intelligentspeculator.com

Don't forget to turn on the audio track. This closing bell report has become a regular stop for me. Very informative.

funk,

Futures traders love ADX. I've read all of Raschke's stuff on it and tried it for about 3 years. Never, ever could get it to do anything that other indicators didn't already do better.

Of course I'm sure T has the answer to what I've been missing <g>.

Alan
