DMI, Market.

Ice,

The DMI can be used in two ways. One way is to wait for crossovers to get buy and sell signals. In my experience, it doesn't work well for that because you get whip sawed quite frequently. I prefer to use the DMI in the manner that I described. It seems to be much more reliable when the ADX is between 70 and 80 and the +DI is less than 5. This indicates that a stock has moved to an extreme and generally a countertrend rally follows.

The U.S. markets might be closed for labor day tomorrow, but the international markets are trading and so are the S&P 500 futures on Globex. They are all up substantially. Here are some current quotes:

Japan: 14,577.22 +534.31 (3.8%)
Hong Kong: 8054.50 + 566.03 (7.6%)
Malaysia: 456.29 + 92.85 (25.6%)
S&P 500 futures: 994.00 +18.0 (1.8%)

If this rally holds, the market is going to open sharply higher on Tuesday.

Ron, I have been out of town a lot the past few weeks but I will be in town next week. I'll check into mIRC and see if I can fix the problem there.

Thanks to everybody for your comments on VLSI, IRF, PIR, etc...

Have a nice labor day everybody.

Dan
