Hi Rts,

<P>I am doing a little study on the P&amp;F, and very much interested to
figure out the best way to calculate the <B><U>box size</U></B> for any
individual commodity contracts.&nbsp; Currently, I am using the Metastock
6.0, and use its default setting. It works fine, but I would like to know
if anyone who is an experienced P&amp;F chartist can give me any recommendations.

<P>Many thanks in advance!

<P>Frank</HTML>

Clyde,

Thank you very much for the ela code for Williams true Trend.  Is it
possible to actually send RTers the ela file itself?

Thanks
