Hi jans,

Thank you for pointing out the difference in the RSLine on my chart and DGO,
as it lead to the discovery that our RSLine data had not been adjusted after
the recent split. That means that my comments earlier today on the recent
decline in the RSLine aren't valid. I've made a few notes on the corrected
chart as a result.

I agree with you that HITK is somewhat extended, as it's a hair's breath
away from Rubberband Sell Rule territory (Price >= 25% of 50dMA + >= 70% of
200dMA). It certainly was in territory at its recent high and gives some
explanation for the recent pullback. Whether or not the pullback continues
to the current trend line or stops at the 50dMA is anybody's guess, but
either way, my earlier comments about the stock being in no-man's land are
still valid, and given the market backdrop, I would definitely wait until a
valid consolidation and breakout were formed before making an entry.

As to the availability of the U/D information over time, this is something
that I found to be missing on the DGO charts and the reason I originally
asked Mike to add them to our charts even before joining him at the website.
I find it gives one additional clue as to the price/volume action and seeing
it trend over time is more useful to me than seeing it as a single data
point. That's my same reasoning for seeing the RSRank plotted over time, as
I can easily go back and see the stock's condition during prior bases. We've
made the charts available to folks on the CANSLIM list, so you can see this
when you need it by going to the site and entering your stock into the box
at the top right of our home page (www.cwhcharts.com) or via the direct
CANSLIM list link we've set up at
http://www.cwhcharts.com/charts/kmchart.php.

Katherine:

     Very nice chart analysis of HITK.  Notice that on DGO, HITK's daily
RS-line is up at the recent troughs in January.  This led me to believe that
it was strong (as a matter of fact, I categorized its RS-line as being in
Strong Divergence).  This, in turn, led me to believe that this was a
worthwhile stock to buy (assuming the market turned up) on its Break Out.

     However, your chart's downtrend in the Up/Down ratio since October/02
has given me pause.  Moreover, HITK's Weekly shows that it is way
overextended (when it broke out in Sept. at 9 [it is now at around 19]), so
perhaps this means that HITK is in a temporary top, and that its Weekly is
reflecting its Up/Down trend-decline .  (But notice that even now, the
weekly
RS-line shows a lot of strength in its steepness and the RS-line's strong
divergence at the top compared to a few weeks earlier).

     As I mentioned, HITK looked strong to me also, until you noted (in the
chart) its declining Up/Down ratio.  Is there a database on-line where I can
gather this past information on the Up/Down Ratio (and Accum/Distribution
Ratings also, if possible?)
