E.Graphs, you got it right on the SOX. A few previous explanations of MACD divergence: Message 6689068 Message 6752770 Message 6861254 Message 6870114 With respect to time frames, it really depends on the type of trader or investor that you are. I am basically a very short-term trader, so the weekly and monthly charts are usually of no use to me. My moves are within each of the bars in the longer term charts. I get my signals on the dailies, and use the 5 and 60-minute charts to confirm my move. Alexander Elder has a triple-screening theory in his famous "Trading for a Living" book where 3 time frames are used to confirm a move. Check it out. Good book. I hope this helps, and I hope that I answered your questions. I was interrupted no less than 5 times while writing this post, so forgive me if it sounds a bit discumbulbled. Debra
