That should have been a good meeting, with the creator.
And no one know's better that Sherman on what
data is best.
But, I think if that is not readily available.
The next best is a
consistent information source. I find the
Yahoo and CSI data
acceptable Bob. Plus the price is right.
I am finding out one can export the PSM (.stk)
files.
Not sure how well it will work. Likely get something
done this weekend. Still thinking of working
with spiders and
others. BBH BDH HHH IIH PPH TTH, etc...

Oscillator
Hi.
Stock
Chart.com is a very good site to visit daily, I think.
But,
I did have just one problem with it. In the case of the NYSE Mc Clellan
Oscillator, They did not post. The date, not that days value, or
last post for MCO. I thought that was important.
Because
your want to be comparing it exactly to the NYSE Index, or DJIA for example.
So I went
to Wallace Lake (?) and he offered the data I needed to USE the metastock
software formula's to effectively display the data. ALSO, important
is your data source. I use Yahoo, figures.
So, I
just used whatever was already in the MS software.
I'am happy
to hear the questions on the MCO though.
