Bob:

Comparing our charts(INDU 10min) the dots are approximately in the same
positions, though I have 7 green ones vs your 6.  My SMT(Cyan dot) is a .23
for Thurs, compared to your 2.69.  My SMDMsum is at -500370.22 for most of
the day and in the last 1/2 hr drops to -510460.59.  And as I said
previously, my SMDMsum, from the beginning of the data(60 days is the max I
collect) on the left to the extreme right, today's data, is a constantly
descending staircase with no variation, no up moves, no sideways moves, just
everyday another step down.  So there must be something wrong, but I don't
have a clue as to what.  I'm attaching the saved page(P334.pag) that should
show you the staircase effect if you can put it into your Omega/TS folder.
