=================== Thank you for replying; some here may want to tell William O Neil who bought a NYSE seat, bulit a newspaper[IBD] out of his stock profits, that his 50 DMA & 200 dma is useless[long time frame or any time frame]. But then again ,you may not want to tell him that; he is old enough to be a dad to most of these posters. 200m dma can be used as a leading indicator; find average price distance at selloffs.....................................
