Try formatting DM and PSM as points and SMT as a line.  Personally, I
haven't spent much time with this indicator.  Looks like the smart money has
been selling lately.  Attached are two indicators.  One has the SMDM and the
other the SMDMsummation.  The SMDM has had a minor plotting change from the
code posted back in June 2001.  Code was adapted from a description of the
Smart Money Index by Raschke and Connors in "Street Smarts".  Since coding
is not my forte....well you get the idea...caveates apply.
