Rik, At first I didn't know what you were 
talking about, thinking you were responding erroneously to another post. Then I 
realized you were talking about Hotbar, right? Thanks for the tip. Yes, I do use 
the toolbar to include cute little smiley faces sometimes when writing emails. 
But, I didn't know it was spyware, although I knew it wasn't a Microsoft 
product. Thanks. I'll consider deleting it.

  Al,
   
  Just an FYI. That Outlook upgrade is not 
  associated with Microsoft and it installs software on your computer that spys 
  on your web browsing and reports it to a marketing company. The Outlook 
  enhancement is just candy to get you to download it. You may have also 
  installed a toolbar they provide. This caused endless problems for our IT 
  department at work when som eemployees installed it.

    H=L and V=0
    Hi, everyone:
     
    Tonight, I thought I'd do a quickie exploration of a watchlist 
    containing almost 800 stocks (range setting on all quotations). I was 
    interested in finding out how many times the high was equal to the low or 
    the volume equaled 0. I used the following exploration:
    Buy=Sell=Short=Cover=0;Error = 
    H==L OR V==<FONT 
    face="Microsoft Sans Serif" color=#ff6820>0<FONT 
    face="Microsoft Sans Serif">;<FONT 
    color=#0000ff>AddColumn(H,"H",<FONT 
    color=#ff6820>1.2);AddColumn(L,<FONT 
    color=#ff00ff>"L",1.2);<FONT 
    face="Microsoft Sans Serif" color=#0000ff>AddColumn<FONT 
    face="Microsoft Sans Serif">(V,<FONT face="Microsoft Sans Serif" 
    color=#ff00ff>"V",<FONT 
    face="Microsoft Sans Serif" color=#ff6820>1<FONT 
    face="Microsoft Sans Serif">);<FONT 
    color=#0000ff>AddColumn(Error,"Bad Price 
    Patterns",1);<FONT 
    face="Microsoft Sans Serif">Filter=Error><FONT 
    face="Microsoft Sans Serif" color=#ff6820>0<FONT 
    face="Microsoft Sans Serif">;
     
    To my surprise, I found over 13,000 instances of H==L and almost 2,700 
    instances of V==0. On the days when V==0, the H and L were also equal. So, 
    those days were truly bad data (or non-trade) days. However, in the other 
    10,000+ instances when H==L, there was legitimate volume, sometimes high 
    volume. What does it mean when the price bars are all equal (O=H=L=C), yet 
    volume was finite?
