Hi Jeff. "Different strokes....." Per my posts, been working new tools to expand our insight into the flow of funds into and out of individual stocks. The concept of "Direct Accumulation" of shares in my recent post based on publicly available information is one of the tools I've developed to do that. Message 16465672 TA oscillators like OBV, PVT, A/D are useful. BUT, professionals and savvy amateurs with many years experience in their use know these INDIRECT measures of flow of funds DO NOT always correlate strongly with actual price movements in their respective stocks going forward. I've felt for some time that we need to develop new tools that are more consistently anticipatory of future price movement. Frankly? Doing that requires going beyond currently available software packages and breaking new ground. Hopefully my work will be a modest contribution in that direction. My friend, Paul Shread (another solid pro and a good writer IMO) and I have talked about writing a book together once my 2 sons are in college, and I've got time to breath!<g> Between the 2 of us, we probably have enough worthwhile material for more than one. Welcome to the thread. Isopatch
