Fred... is that about 600 decliners more than advancers overall?

<That A/D sto stignal: It needs 287 more decliners today than advancers.> Yeah, what the heck is that? Scott posted something about A/D to me on Stock Swap and I ran out numbers back to August and my numbers aren't even close. I got A/D going plus last Friday using 25, 20, 15, 10, and 5 d series. Nothing prior to that, the signal was still negatori using zero as the turn before Friday of last week. I mean I understand your numbers and mine could be off but this is off a bunch. I did not check today's yet. Larry McMillan has been using an Osc on the A/D for perhaps 20 years. Sometimes it works; oddly enough he is looking for it to go short. In any event, If it dives for you I am happy pal. You can jet down to NYC and buy me a beer. EDIT I just read GZ's post and I'm completely mystified. Nothing I have is near 1800 as a turn. I'm definitely NOT a systems trader.
