Hi Ron,
Thanks for the reply. The Bullish Percent Index (BPI) is unrelated to the X day average index. If you review the link that I provided it specifies how the index is calculated basically its the percent of symbols that are currently exhibiting a Point and Figure chart buy signal. Im really interested in obtaining the historical data because it would be quite difficult to reproduce. I have found the BPI to be an excellent indicator for identifying market extremes that are not always apparent when looking at the more common indicators like the VIX, Put/Call ratio and New Highs/Lows.

This chart shows the % of stocks in the internet sector trading above the 50 DMA. I use this to determine Bullish % above the 50 DMA. The blue line in the top window is the % of stocks above the 50 DMA, and the red line is a 21 day moving average of the 50 DMA.

I monitor these charts at www.stockcharts.com <http://www.stockcha <http://www.stockcha <http://www.stockcharts.com/> rts.com/> rts.com/> but would like to get the actual data so that I can use it with my own charting programs. Here's a link to a description of these market indicators. http://www.stockcha <http://www.stockcha <http://www.stockcharts.com/education/IndicatorAnalysis/marketindicators1.ht > rts.com/education/IndicatorAnalysis/marketindicators1.ht m> rts.com/education/IndicatorAnalysis/marketindicators1.htm l#BPI Unfortunately, stockcharts.com does not allow the User to export the data from the charts. This data set would be a very useful additional to QuotePlus. I realize that I could probably calculate the indices myself, but generating the historical data would be a lot of work considering how many changes have been made to the indices over the years.
