<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Sarcasm seems to escape many on the list (I guess
it's offensive to anyone who didn't grow up in Detroit).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1. Yes my eod vendor can adjust splits on
the chart. The problem is that the "Amerikan public" has difficulties
understanding the price movement unless you leave the splits in the price
charts. I used to get emails that told me my prices where wrong
because:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>"AMAT was trading at 170 a few days ago and you
chart is wrong because you don't have it any higher than 90".</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2. Internally I do adjust the splits and
then apply my mechanical indicators (whaddya think I am, dumb and educated in
the Detroit Public Schools systems...holy moly).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>3. It seems that a number of astute(?) list
members think that my signal was generated simply because the stock split and
suddenly the stock gapped down 50%. Duh, the "gap down opening" humor
was just that...humor (sarcasm). </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>4. You cowboys out there that think you
know momentum oscillators I'm applying to the markets or what rules constitute
a buy or sell signal should "choke" back your subjective opinions.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm more than willing to share trading ideas and
exchange formulae (less willing lately...too many parasitic leaches), but
when folks are calling shots to the list about what does or does not
constitute a signal for me....it makes me giggle. I will continue to
"lay it on the table" (as I do everyday of my trading career), but before
anyone tells the forum that the only reason I triggered a trade is because of
a split...it might behoove you to first totally understand the math behind the
positions. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Actually, I have a pet monkey and the proverbial
dart board. That's my real secret. Maybe, the subjective
reviewers of my positions can speculate about what type of ape I'm
using.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So, I've been so busy this morning trading
futures, I haven't looked at AMAT. Did it fill the 80 point gap that it
created on the opening yesterday?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My mechanical trading approach has been
very accurate with AMAT this year. The attached chart shows the
buying signals generated during the past twelve months. Tomorrow is
the first buying signal since early in the year. The five star
rating is my highest buying recommendation and is based on underlying
strength of trend. The buying signal is generated with a simple
momentum oscillator.</FONT></DIV>

Status:
My plan is to copy the composite data of Cumulative Advances minus Declines
generated by the Metastock Downloader to a new file which should appear as
index file with the one value each day and no volume or other inputs.
This data can be I believe compressed to weekly but it will only occur on
Friday each week. It may then be used in weekly charts. It is not precisely
the same as the weekly values obtained in Barons weekly but it should
reflect the market actions viewed weekly.
The weekly update I plan to manually enter the end of each week.
Please comment and new suggestions are welcome.

I would also like to obtain weekly advance/decline data.
Unfortunately, Quotes-Plus doesn't offer this. If anyone knows
where I can download this data, please LMK. From what I
understand, the daily advance/decline line is less important than
the weekly.
If you want to keep track of market breadth and you only have
daily adv/dec data, it's best to use the McClellan Oscillator/McC
Summation index.
