Net Question Correct, assuming the volume traded was within local and historical parameters. Who answers the questions? Well, partly it answers its own, through spawning interrogative queries to the database and previous models. The objective is to predict future movement,though, so, unless something radical happens where it doesn't have correct/complete/sufficient data, it just lowers the probablility of the answers correctness. If something is way out of whack it flags it for review before proceeding. Understand that there are two basic ways a net can operate in terms of the case characteristics. One can either provide substantial detail and fewer case examples, or thousands of cases with minimal data. (Well, ok, there is the part in the middle of those two, but its not very useful based on my experience). Now, the former will give you a higher probability of correctness, but often be wrong. The latter (fewer characteristics, more cases) will give you a lower probability of correctness, but will be more accurate, in general. I have found few instance for any ticker of useful data older than 6 months for the net, btw. I also tend to disregard stocks that make huge jumps. They usually have profit-taking corrections th following day, and in the cases that they continue up, those are more usually flagged by TA. lastshadow
