Doug and Thread, DATC. For what it might be worth, DATC hit 2 of my indicators today. First is my 20% indicator, (hear that bdog??) and second is a float indicator that I have been trading with for about a year now. Trouble with both of them is that you don't get many signals in a stocks history so you have to scan lots of stocks to find just a few. Anyway, DATC hit them both today at 3 3/8, so I just bought a bunch. JMHO you know! Cube

Ok here's the all time high lunch scan...finally. (Thanks to the SI boards, Bob Jagow in particular.) From yesterday, this scan goes back to 1/2/92 so if any of these stocks have prior history they may or may not be disqualified. bpersistentdog Symbol ATH Close Vol 30dVol Float Shrt% Name Sector Group ANF 48.750 49.875 546500 460368 54.2 0.018 ABERCROMBIE & FITCH CO CL A Retail Retail-Apparel/Shoe CTYA 21.625 24.875 572900 231139 18.1 0.025 CENTURY COMMUNICATIONS CORP CL A Information Media-Cable TV CW 46.875 47.000 6100 6197 3.2 0.048 CURTISS WRIGHT CORP COM Capital Goods & Services Aerospace-Defense Eqp EFX 42.375 43.062 361000 298032 130.1 0.031 EQUIFAX INC COM Financial Bus Services-Misc FFDB 14.500 15.938 200 852 0.6 0.000 FIRSTFED BANCORP INC ALABAMA COM Financial Banking-Southeast FFYF 35.375 36.125 28300 5648 3.1 0.002 FFY FINL CORP COM Financial Banking-Midwest FNC 27.875 28.562 1700 1894 4.4 0.000 FIRST NATL CRP ORANGEBURG SC COM N/A N/A IDXC 52.750 53.500 699200 177813 11.8 0.031 IDX SYS CORP COM Information Computers-Health IM 49.250 49.938 374000 272610 53.3 0.075 INGRAM MICRO INC CL A Retail Retail/Whlsle-Computers LRE 91.375 91.438 178200 211987 8.6 0.054 LIFE RE CORP COM Financial Insurance-Life MFNX 61.000 63.250 324500 149868 4.2 0.064 METROMEDIA FIBER NETWORK CL A Information Telecomm-Equip MIFC 12.750 12.875 10800 5155 1.2 0.001 MID-IOWA FINL CORP COM Financial Financl-Savings Loan NIRTS 22.750 23.875 20700 3945 2.5 0.000 NATIONAL INCOME RLTY TR SH BEN INT NEW Financial Financl-Mortgage REIT PFSCF 11.500 13.000 3155100 282010 5.0 0.001 POSITRON FIBER SYS CORP COM Information Telecomm-Equip SCOT 31.250 31.750 48000 4203 1.9 0.001 SCOTT & STRINGFELLOW FINL IN COM Financial Financl-Investment Bkrs

Hmmm, Except for just barely less than truly impressive volume in the overall markets on Wed., the only salient technical point I find is that no buy signal was achieved by the Dow's performance of gaining 90 points. I filed a complaint to AOL's data provider. They have Wednesday's high for the S&P 500 as 1783.99...yeah, right. I entered the correct numbers and find nothing technically compelling there. The Russell 2K shows a bit more short term technical weakness on Wednesday's activity. Intermediate weakness will not be ameliorated by this. The 392 support will likely see a serious test. It appears that another hit is on the way. Doug R
