Mark is probably using the DTN satellite feed. He used to have the BMI
feed. There are definitely differences in the data from the different
feeds. Some feeds may not include all the common, preferreds, ADR's, closed
end funds, etc.. He may also be using different thresholds than 3 and 1.
Different buy/sell thresholds will make a bigger difference in signals than
a few minutes either side of the top of the hour. Using 7 for the length is
kind of important since the OddBall is really a one day rate of change of
NYA advancing issues sampled at the top of each day session hour.
