Katherine,

 

Thanks for your input.  Your help is invaluable.  I looked at the indices in TC2000 with MoneyStream and Time Segmented Volume.  I looked at the NASDAQ, S&P-500, and Russell 2000.  Here’s what I found on all 3 charts.

 

CMS:

MoneyStream stayed above it’s linear regression line on the left side of the cup, on the right side of the cup, and during the BO.  However, it stayed below the linear regression line along the bottom of the cup and during the handle formation.

 

TSV:

TSV stayed mainly above the center line during the left-side of the cup.  Toward the bottom of the cup, TSV plunged way below the zero line.  On the right side of the cup, TSV shot high above the center line again.  During the handle formation and the BO, TSV dipped down and back up again.

 

I guess this is supposed to tell me that volume supported the price action because there were no divergences.  Since you mentioned Accumulation/Distribution, I probably should have looked at On Balance Volume and/or Balance of Power.  However, I haven’t had much success with those indicators in the past.

 

I’m trying to become more proficient at chart reading, and you’re certainly helping a great deal along with other members of this list.  Once again, thank you very much.
