have you tried exponential smoothing of a shorter correlation.

y= ema(Correlation(Nasup,C,32),8);

construct two separate correlation studies - one compares the base 
stock to days when the Nasdaq is up and the other compares the base 
stock to the Nasdaq when the Nasdaq is down.  I suspect they will be 
pretty jagged because there will be day when they do not budge 
because of false results - perhaps I'll have to use a MA on them.

They'll demonstrate a low correlation to the up days, since they are 
lagging, and if they have a high correlation to the Nasdaq on the 
Nasdaq down days that's a red flag - perhaps a sign to short the weak 
stocks

of a stock relative to an index on a day when the index is up and

trying to put together an indicator that shows the correlation of a 
stock when the Nasdaq is up and when the Nasdaq is down.  I'm having 
quite a bit of trouble since  I haven't really used the IIF function 
and I'm not sure if I need to create composites.  I put this together 
so far but it is way off base (I'm afraid it's too simplistic!) - 
what happens is both studies are the complete inverse of each other.
