Re: [RT] Lowry Intensity indicator - MTA Award

Earl,

Do you mean that the 1 cent min has altered the basis or recalibrated the
scale of Breadth, redefining its range and its implications, or do you mean,
by what seems the stronger term "obfuscated" that it is just less useful
today given the current context?

And do you think therefore that the use of intraday breadth/AD has also lost
value? I would suppose that you do. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.

Thanks!

Eliot
