Spots.......the way we all learned what we learned here was by putting our own work out for review and having others pick away at it. Humbling...? Yes! Helpful....? Yes! Enlightening to both ourselves and others....? Absolutely. Remember, it don't mean a thing 'til you put your mouth where your money is... BW Chan fmausa.com

Ok, Spots.....got the gist of your indicator......so what I did was to create a formula (I use MetaStock, so I don't know what you can do in Q+) as follows: Mov(C,21,W) - Mov(C,21,S) That's the Simple moving average subtracted from the Weighted one (gg) That creates an oscillator (there are other readers out there who are doing triple "ggg's" because I love oscillators as much a jelly beans). I see that it lags just enough to not give me what I want, so I experiment with Fibonacci numbers and come up with: Mov(C,8,W) - Mov(C,8,S) and get an oscillator that is much more in tune with the action of the stock. I will do a test when I get back from the West Coast (if I don't drown) and see if there are some more things to be done. Thanks for the idea!! BW Chan
