<P>There is an interesting chapter on silver in the book "The New Precious
Metals Market" by Philip Gotthelf (of the Commodex fame and fortune).
<P>There are indeed many potential uses for this white metal as the tech
industry continues to grow in leaps and bounds. As far as I know
silver demand and consumption is roughly balanced at current prices levels.
So any new/developing technologies involving silver could tip those demand/supply
scales. Remember though, the flip side is that there is continuing
research into other materials such as "electroplastics" that could offer
a lighter/cheaper alternative to silver.
<P>Having said that, I shall continue to react to current price trends
rather than attempting to anticipate them.
<P>I got the book from my local bookstore for around US$35.

NetTickVolume is calculated using futures. Each evening I download the daily
Time and Sales zip file from the CME (ftp.cme.com/pub/time) and run all of the
ticks through a program which compresses the info and then builds intraday bars
with NetTickVolume: when an uptick comes in it accumulates upticks until a
downtick comes in and begins accumulating downticks. When bar is complete it
nets upticks-downticks into the volume field. I do this for all of the CME
futures - indexes, currencies, etc. I prefer it to OBV because it captures the
true up/down action within each bar rather than making assumptions based on
price relationships. Supposedly TradeStation tracks Up/Dn ticks
seperately which would allow one to do the same thing, however I've heard there
are problems this.
Re the Nyse TICK, I do find an intraday spread between two ma's quite useful.
