the close within the day range. This is a key component of Chaiken (and Twiggs) 
work. Closes in the top end of the range indicate accumulation while closes in 
the bottom end indicate distribution. The smoothing component then takes some of 
the daily whip saws out.

As most of us know, there is little in TA that is not a derivative of 
something else in TA, often just a rehash or slight modification.  So 
it seems to me that this Twiggs indicator is just OBV in drag.  ^^_^^
