Re: QCHA - where is it? How is it calculated?

An addendum to my previous post:

You can get a similar picture of the market by following the Investor Intelligence
data that come out every Wed. Not the bull/bear data but the % of stocks above the
10 wk and 30 wk MA. You can get these data from II directly or from CNBC. Roy
Bloomberg used to announce the numbers religiously at 11:35 am but Bob Pisanti is at
the helm now and he announces them whenever he feels like it, so they are easy to
miss. Last time I checked II was at 914.632.0422. They also (used to) have a 900
number.

Yesterday 27.89% were above the 10 wk MA and 28.45% were above the 30 wk MA.
