Hi Mike,

From an intermediate term CANSLIM perspective, negative divergence can
signal both "stay away from a potential breakout" and/or "time to sell,"
depending on the technical condition, the market, etc.

From a short term trading perspective, and from a short-seller's point of
view, negative divergence can signal a setup. Whether one would short off a
failing top (and/or breakout) or as a pullback/continuation in a downward
trend is a matter of preference. The little bit that WON addresses on
shorting, he much prefers continuations in downward trends....scouting
setups when RS<=30 and other fundamental indicators are lagging. This is one
of the reasons why there's a big "gap" in the RS's if you look at a DGO
printed product company report. You'll see a lot of stocks with RS>=70ish
(long setups) and a lot with RS<=30 to 40ish (short setups) and not much in
between.

Katherine

| Hi Dan,
|
| Absolutely and good point...just a specific kind of divergence, i.e. Price
| v. Volume action.
|
| CANSLIM has several good divergence indicators such as price rising while
| the RS Line is nonconfirming...i.e. diverging...price moving up and the RS
| Line moving down. (negative divergence) A good positive divergence
| indicator
| is price falling back or moving sideways with the RS line moving up. Good
| indication that this stock is building steam and outperforming relative to
| the market, despite the price action.
