>>>>What is MONEY stream?

How do you determine if the money is flowing OUT of or IN to the stock? (Since there is a buyer for every seller, is MS a math formula that calculates #'s of sales at bid vs ask, adjusted for volume?)<<<<<

Thanks WP for this question. DB, I've long pondered what is the difference between volume and , for example, the Chaiken Money Flow. Is volume a measure of the quantities of trades made, regardless of numbers of shares in each trade?....Or, what? Inquiring (and of course, also brilliant) minds would like to know.

Respectfully, and somewhat whimsically submitted (if KB can look the other way for a moment). <vbg>

BTW!! Miz D...what a refreshing breeze you have provided to this board with your recently returned posts! Puhleeze!! Stay awhile! Like this interim dip in the OSX, I don't think all the excess verbiage put out by the bear panic promoters can withstand the truth and the real facts that will send them both to the history bins.

Money stream represents money flows. Worden Brothers call it money stream.

>>> How do you determine if the money is flowing OUT of or IN to the stock? (Since there is a buyer for every seller, is MS a math formula that calculates #'s of sales at bid vs ask, adjusted for volume?) <<<

You determine it by whether the bid is being hit or the ask. The formula isn't available to the public since the indicator is proprietary.

Is it accurate? What do you mean by accurate?

Keep in mind, it isn't an indicator to trigger a buy or sell signal. It helps to determine the "quality" of the price movement.

The more I learn about technical analysis through experience, the more I learn that it isn't used to trigger buy and sell signals. You use it to gauge the condition of the market for the particular equity you are interested in. Are the current conditions conducive to a long position, a short position, a hold or an avoid for now?

What indicators did you use to buy that piece of property you are building your new home on? You looked for things that were conducive to the life style you wish to live in the type of environment you wish to live in.

That's how I employ technical indicators via an equity. I look for indicators that are conducive to a high probability, low risk trade.

If money is flowing into a stock, the odds suggest price will rise. If money is flowing out of a stock, odds suggest price will fall. It's simply a matter of supply and demand.
