Sam, A really impressive display, to say the least. But, I have to tell you there is no way I could deal with that much info on my screen. If I didn't invent the KISS approach, I could have (maybe Al Gore invented that, too). I have a graphic arts background and it's a natural thing for me to really get into graphics. Back in the days before computers, I had the most elaborate hand made charts anyone ever saw. I could have framed those babies. Colors and all. It broke my heart when price moved up and out of the range of my chart I'd spent weeks developing. Don't get the wrong idea here, Sam. I'm certainly not putting down what you're doing. I'm just saying it could never work for me. I have to stay as far away from "pretty charts" as I can, or the "art" begins to take precedence. I never really had success with those hand drawn charts, other than the occasional piece of luck. Back in the early 70's, believing I knew what I was doing with them, I dropped over 50 grand before I came to my senses. I guess what I'm meaning here, but doing a poor job of saying, is that the simpler you can make this, usually the better off you'll end up. I hope you take this in the way I mean it, Sam. You've had some good trades and I wouldn't want to talk you out of anything that works for you. Just think about it, OK? Ken
