The theory behind the indexes is as follows: On days of increasing volume, you can expect prices to increase, and on days of decreasing volume, you can expect prices to decrease. This goes with the idea of the market being in-gear and out-of-gear. Both PVI and NVI work in similar fashions: Both are a running cumulative of values, which...

Unlike most of the other indicators (except OBV), price change doesn?t come into the equation for the FVE (price is not multiplied by volume), but is only used to determine whether money is flowing in or out of the stock. This is contrary to the current trend in the design of modern money flow indicators....
