Ok then let's take this a step further...

Money flow like many indicators gives a specific # for a specific point in time. For example money flow could be zero for the last two hours. The next thing you want to look at is the change in money flow. Maybe it's at zero for three days, but suddenly the trend changes to positive or negative. It's actually the change in the trend that's more important than the actual # itself. Investing in a stock with positive money flow is probably just OK, while trying to catch a stock when the money flow goes + is even better. That only counts though if you can correlate the stocks movement with money flow. Some stocks correlate better with some indicators vs others.

The best example of an indicator that looks at a specific # and at a trend is momentum vs MACD...momentum is a specific # at a specific point in time and MACD indicates the change in momentum.

All this goes back to calculus class and relates mathematically to integrals and derivatives...YUCK!

Hope that helps...
