You
may want to look at the twiggs indicator that was discussed last week. It deals
with gaps as well as the data drop off you mention.....

Price - OBV overlay indicator help - thanks JaysonI had
to change the scale to get what I was looking for. As far as the scan
goes, I've tried that in the past and didn't get anything too
reliable. I'm guessing what happens is when you have a above average
day, when it comes time to day drop it from the calculation it causes huge
swings in the OBV indicator making it too unreliable.It'll be a work in
progress. I was downloaded some of the archives and nice work on that
sector analysis piece in post 24839. Same with DT and his mean RSI and
MeanCMO ideas. My fiancee was ready to kill me last night for
spending hours reading through all these posts. Thanks to all those
who have contributed so many incredibly creative ideas -- too many to
thank! I'm looking forward to trying them out on my own--- In
