Hi The index discussion has been interesting, the Lehman indexes are simply not going to be affordable, as they are simply too expensive.
The bullish percents are a good idea, it only involves some calculations on existing data. The Dow indexes are a possibility. Thanks, Gary ----- Original Message ----- From: Lionel Issen To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, July 04, 2006 6:35 PM Subject: RE: [quotes-plus] Gary Re: Everybody please let Gary know your interested in additional indexes Is this a tempest in a teapot? Gary should welcome constructive suggestions. Yes everything costs something. Yes there is no free lunch. I think that this recent set of suggestions is very constructive. Having said this, I think that QP has to stay on top of the market. If QP doesn't, then its competitors will eat its lunch. This keeps happening with all kinds of software companies. They get complacent and someone else runs off with their market. Happy July 4.

Some time ago someone, I think Janene..not sure, who worked for QP posted that questions can be posted here as they monitor the site. Yes I know Janene is no longer with Qp. Also, Gary said that he didn't think there was a demand for the indexes..see one of the earlier posts...so it is the natural place to ask everyone .. IF THEY ARE INTERESTED IN HAVING THESE INDICES?..RIGHT?.. And you mention that this site includes the software..and from my perspective..the data is part of the software. I see lots of people posting about bad and/or missing data here..and yet..I don't see you griping about that...please complain somewhere else....Sure seem to me like you are whining here. --- In quotes-plus@ <mailto:quotes-plus%40yahoogroups.com> yahoogroups.com, "investor_ann7" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Here's the description of this site: > "Description > This group is for Quotes Plus customers.
