Gary, pardon my very naive question regarding money flow, but it seems to me that it is perfectly balanced at zero. For example, assuming three transactions 100 shares trades at the open at $100 (no change from the previous day). Next 100 shares trades at $99, next 100 shares trades at $98. Now you would claim that this is negative money flow. I claim that the flow is equal between buyers and sellers. Sellers received exactly what the buyers paid, (neglecting bid/ask differentials and brokerage fees), so I think your calculation clouds the reality that the capitalized value dropped. Notice that the order of the sales makes no difference. I get the feeling that it is finding a distinction without a difference. What am I missing here? TTFN, CTC
