------------------------------------------------------- Updated 12/27/2004 Super-long 40 month sma and 80 sma --- It normally takes a while (many years) for this two sma to cross. Look at $nikk, the peak was at late 1989 and 1990, however it took three more years for 40 sma to go under 80 sma. And $tnx 40 sma still over $80 sma for many many years.
