love the analysis. would you share the code you used to test this ? i'm impressed you could whip this up in 1 day, as slow as I write TS code.

fwiw, how long did that take TS to calculate ?

T.I.A.

Hi Buck,

I have some code in the "Free Downloads" section of the website. I think one looks at Distribution Days and the other at the Nasdaq/S&P relative strength model. You may be able to use it as a template for building your own code.

There are also some studies available for sale under the studies section on the main page.

Most studies take very little time to calculate. This one took a little longer because of all the intraday data. Still less than a minute.

Best,
Rob
