That's why using feed proprietary calculated stats is a crap shoot...the 
guys who developed them either quit or died..;) Sometimes simple (A/D) is 
better...

the IBM commercial regarding "magic" pixie dust comes to mind...:)

And they may calculate them differently.  For example with
adv/decl issues and up/down volume, there are several ways you
could compute the index.  I once tried several ways to duplicate
DTN's uvol/dvol numbers, and failed.  I tried to find ANYbody at
DTN who knew how it was computed, and as far as I could tell
nobody knows.  It's magic.  "If the stock is up, it goes into up
volume, if it's down, it goes into down volume."  Thanks, that's
very helpful...
