I've had several PMs asking me to post my workspace. Um, ok. Here it is: geocities.com Phoenix, Don't choke on your e-munchkin donut. I know we've discussed the pluses and minuses of simplicity vs complexity. And I keep making the window simpler. then, as if by magic, the workspace gets more complex as I add things to see how they work. oh well. :o) Also, this is on one of those freebie web sites, and i'm sure I'll hit my transmission limit after about 3 hits to the web site, so if you're interested and can't get in, check tomorrow.

It's great this worked out for you today, but I think it was an extraordinary day. I wonder if you can extend your chart back several days and see how it would have done. The chart below comparing NDX to SPX shows that todays divergence was very unusual in recent history (setting the window to 7 days makes a pretty dramatic comparison; 11 days or 13 days shows that several days back around July 11-17 this position would have been on the wrong side. I don't know how you tell when it's a good day to do this, or which side you want to be on, although I did note yesterday that the ES NQ difference had grown considerably of late so I'm not surprised to see it closing some. I'd sure be interested if you can find some way to predict these relative changes. stockcharts.com Dan
