I forgot.

The downtrend on the a/d line from the 4/3 peak failed.

we have three lower peaks, with three higher highs (at least on the oex)

Gee LG, It took me 3 hours to read all the posts or I would have
already posted the scans. <g>

Changed the format a little so hopefully easier to read. Left to
right 10 Day SMA, 20 Day SMA, & 200 Day SMA.

Now here is one more I have been playing with since mid sept to see
if it had any potential as a leading indicator. The scan is run
against a list of 3485 common stocks that have an avg 100,000 shares
trading per day for the last 30 days. (AMEX, NASD, & NYSE)

It looks for a crossing of a 5 day EMA Crossing either above
or below an 8 day SMA. A cross above gives a buy (of course) and
below a sell. Not sure that it can call a turn yet but it sure seems
to confirm a trend and told me to be careful beginning on 11/30/98
when the %age flattened. Still too early yet to put a lot of faith
in it but I found it interesting. The Cum% is the number that is
smoothed enough to have any meaning. The others are here just for
grins.

Notice 9/25, 10/08, 10/22, 10/29, 11/06, 11/13, & 11/24 & compare
to SPX on those dates. Would like to get enough history built to
put it in MetaStock and plot a chart.

Will be interesting to see what this scan produces tomorrow.
