GZ,

I've added another indicator to the 25day sum
It can also be applied to 30 days
Picked it up from one my readings.

Take total advances (25d sum)
Divide by total decliners (25d sum)

This gives a percentage
0.84 = over sold
1.00 = equilibrium
1.21 = over bought

March 1st's reading was .78 with the DJIA at 9200± and S&P at 1775±. The markets have climbed continuously and this indicator has marked the rises and falls very clearly.

This figure has been hanging 1.17 for most of last week.

I've got more work to do back testing...but it looks promising.
