Katherine,
Can you expound on the statement that WTW broke out? In looking at the=
chart, I can sorta see a v shaped cwh, but in the handle, the volume di=
d
NOT dry up.....what would you say the pivot point was?
Thanks

You know, I have a simple solution for this kind of dilemma....don't us=
e
the numbers.
I know it's tempting to use a number like this, as it seems to "tell yo=
u
everything" about the stock. But I think once you summarize summary
numbers, you're asking for trouble. I rank the composite score as "mild=
ly
useful."
Here's an example. I'll select a couple of stocks that have come up for=
discussion here in the last few months: WTW and TOL.
Scores?
WTW =3D 96
TOL =3D 95
Yet, look at the charts. WTW broke out today, TOL is rolling over and
playing dead. Doesn't sound like a score of 95/96 "tells" me everything=
I
need to know about the stocks.

I just had today's update figures for DGO sent to me.
The 3 columns are 8/9 DGO data
8/12 IBD readings 30 minutes ago
8/12 DGO just received today's download
Hi Katherine, I hadn't checked today and after reading your note, I
'thought' I was in error.
However, I just went and checked several stocks:
8/9 8/12 8/12
DGO IBD DGO
AAON 85 86 83
AIR 38 55 32
ABCB 89 90 90
ABM 77 85 75
ABN 58 67 58
ACE 69 86 71
ACMR 92 95 92
AES 24 30 25
AFCE 72 79 74
AFL 92 95 91
The first ten (10) I checked showed different numbers.
My question still stands, which one is better?
Gene

Hi Gene,
There seems to be conflicting information on this...See DGO's reply to=
my
