The McClellan Oscillator is a 19 EMA - 39 EMA. It is similar to the
MACD except that MACD uses 12 EMA and 26 EMA. The quickest
way to get info on these indicators is at the Equis site:

The easiest way to use the McClellan Oscillator and McClellan Summation
Index is to use a composite of advancers minus decliners. I have
a MetaStock Layout with the NYSE and Nasdaq McClellan Oscillator/Summation
index charts. I don't really look at NYSE stocks anymore though.
In addition to the regular McClellan indicators, there are also ratio-based
indicators which are more reliable because they aren't affected by added
securities on the exchanges over the years. I also have formulas
and charts for those.
