Gosh, you're making me think *way* to hard for this time of night!

Good point and I'm not sure I have a definitive answer. In the case of COLM,
if you look at all three charts in totality.... what I see is that there is
always a lot of volume around the $30+ mark. For the most part, the sellers
and buyers seem to have equal strength in that area (using the price by
volume chart). So I think if you're trying to assess half empty/half
full...if there is no strength in the move going up into that resistance
area (witness the low U/D ratio for COLM lately) then I'd say that it's
going to be a tough nut to crack. If, on the other hand, you exhaust the
sellers going into that resistance zone, as you suggest and you see it in a
strong U/D ratio, then you would have a greater probability of blowing
through it on the next try.

| Thank you Katherine

| This leads to another point of view - is the glass half empty or half
| full?
|
| Wouldn't high (selling) activity indicate the supply is closer to
| depletion? Seems this would make for less resistance?
