Not personally, personally - hey, I could have bugs, but not this time <g>. The difference is that if you calculate these numbers everyday like we do, as opposed to once a week like some other places, you sometimes see these movements as they happen but they seem almost too fast. A friend also does a 10 day moving average of the daily numbers which seems to work pretty nicely to smooth the numbers out (that's at 72.8 right now).

This is the page on StockCharts.com that I always take a look at for the bullish percent numbers (the charts are of bullish percent numbers, but in SharpChart form, which actually works pretty nicely for looking at bullish percent numbers at a glance - and it also has a 20 period and 50 period moving average on the page):

Missed opportunity? Maybe you could play the short side on the next ride down? I may just lighten up here in the next week or so.

Great to see you around these parts. Long time no read!
