Sursod,

I bookmarked your post.

email me brian.z123@xxxxxxxxxxxx 

 if you want some feedback later when I do a study on RSI & SRSI as 
discussed by you.
I will mail you off the air if I find anything worth sharing or if I 
disagree with your findings.
It will be a while as I have a lot of work in front of me at the 
moment.

I'm going to continue discussion within the forum, according to the 
guidelines, when and where it suits me. 

As it happens I don't actually want to be personally involved in long 
discussions on OT issues.
(I wouldn't put your post in that category).
I am happy to exchange core info within the forum (as we did in this 
discussion) and then follow up on the leads privately.

In this case, I couldn't go with you in an intelligent discussion on 
RSI, bound indicators etc but after I do some homework on the topic I 
would like to swap notes.

If anything interesting comes out of that and you want to share in 
the forum I am sure a % of users would be interested.

Brian.
