    <P>&gt; Lionel, in addition to the points you make there was a serious flaw 
    in the <BR>&gt; way Granville determined OBV. He applied all of the daily 
    volume either to <BR>&gt; the up-volume or down-volume depending on whether 
    the stock closed up or <BR>down <BR>&gt; for the day. Thus a stock closing 
    up 1/8 point on one million shares would <BR>&gt; have the same increase in 
    OBV as a stock moving up 2 points on one million <BR>&gt; shares. I read an 
    article in the early '70's that calculated the up-volume <BR>&gt; as: ((High 
    - Open) + (Close - Low))/2(High - Low). The reverse for <BR>&gt; 
    down-volume. This gives a much more accurate evaluation of <BR>&gt; 
    accumulation/distribution. <BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; The first edition of Perry's 
    book was published in 1978. Based on its <BR>&gt; success, Perry was asked 
    by Conti Commodity in St. Louis to manage a <BR>&gt; commodity account 
    ($10,000 minimum to join). It did not do well in the <BR>1980 <BR>&gt; swing 
    and was closed some time later. Which just goes to show that just <BR>&gt; 
    because you can write a good cookbook doesn't necessarily mean you're a 
    <BR>good <BR>&gt; cook. <BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; Joe
