Note that EMA and SMA look fairly different when plotted side by side. Not sure if it would make any difference in overall success using the method if you swapped between the two. However, as people here use SMA, so if you use EMA your results would differ somewhat which would not be helpful in understanding what is going on when you compare your results with those of others.

Hi,

I have a question which I'm looking for since days, and founding nothing on the net. I'm trading on french market (Euronext Paris) and I can't find any representation of the Advance/Decline line for this market. Looks like here it is more focused on US and UK market, but maybee somebody have any clue about the way to find it ?

Marginally, I would also be interested in the same Advance/Decline line for broad markets (world scale, european scale), which could be compared to MSCI world or Stoxx Europe 600/TMI.

Thanks. Smile

I had a quick look, and this is what I found for the CAC: http://www.boursorama.com/bourse/actions/palmares/advance-decline.phtml

Couldn't find a chart though. So you might have to do a bit of manual work, and input the advance decline data yourself daily into a spreadsheet, and create your own chart if you can't find anything else. I do this myself for the custom P&F breakouts - Breakdowns chart that I post on here, as sometimes you have to do things manually.

Thank you for your answer, isatrader. And also thank you for own research.

I already found the data of boursorama. In another french website (abcbourse.com), I also found a listing of all the daily numbers.

About your suggestion of charting this by myself: actually this was the next planned step, in case I can't find any charts. But before starting a such work, I wanted to be sure that nothing can be found on the net.

I think I will start this soon. I'll have to do it also for other indicators.

Hi,
I'm new to Stan's method and have one question. Do you avoid to buy the stock before earning data? Or if the stage analysis is good, the earning date is not a factor for buy?

I did a brief Q&A with Stan a few years ago where I brought up the question of earnings. You can find it here: http://stageanalysis.net/forum/showthread.php?tid=1&pid=623#pid623

Hi ISA,
Thank you very much for the prompt reply. Your Q&A is an excellent addition to the book and I will spend more time on to digest it.
Happy investing.
