Hi Ken,
I already posted 3 complementary gifs from 3/2000 till now.
I do not study the 98/99 period.
There is no reason.
If, someday, we will have similar conditions and if I keep on 
trading, may be.
But not now !!
The forest is full of bears, don t you see them ?
You may study this, or another period or another stockmarket.
For Athens SE it works fine the last 30 months and it is my day 
consultant the last year. We were lucky enough to have the ability of 
multiple securities calculations since

For the recent period of my posting it is quite informative, I think.
The rest is up to you.
