Travis, your Yahoo link made me chart "volume accumulation" on BigCharts. That's an interesting indicator which was new to me. Here's a link to the chart and the definition... 206.146.143.80 It looks like accumulation picks up when there's a dip. But I have no experience with this. Gottfried Vol Accumulation The Volume Accumulation, developed by Mark Chaikens, is a modification on the traditional On Balance Volume (OBV) indicator. Instead of assigning all the period's volume to either buyers or sellers, the Volume Accumulator uses a proportional amount of based on the relationship between the closing price and its intra-period mean price. In effect, the indicator is measuring shades of grey that traditional volume indicators like OBV miss. However, if price close at the period's high or low all volume for that period will be assigned accordingly regardless of the relationship to the intra-period mean price. Movement of the oscillator above the zero line measures buying pressure while movement below the zero line measures selling pressure.
