The old norms aren't the norm any more. The
oscillator used to max out at 100 and now the top was 300. I think that a
lot of things that used to be touchstones are no longer relevant. They can
be an indication, but no longer something to act upon. In the 70s and
early 80s the VIX ranged between 12 and 18 now we are looking at numbers in the
50s and 60s.
Of course if you were raised in the depression the
price for a loaf of bread doesn't make any sense either.
as you can see, when market made the low in
October, the osc made a higher hi
currently at 150 and still showing
strength
comments welcome
Ben
p,s
the volume and price osc also show
bullish divergence?
