Multi-period Market Indicator Values

It's been a while since I last posted.

Watching multiple time period indicators intraday has convinced me that it
is essential to evaluate market indicators from a multi-period perspective.

Alexander Elder has the clearest exposition of this that I've seen (his
"Triple Screen System").

Anyone know of anyone besides Elder who has written clearly about an
integrated multi-period analysis and trading?

I've summarized values for my current favorite indicators below by index and
period as of close 1/9/98.

Wish me luck.  My intra-day travels (or is it travails?) have led me to try
my hand at intra-day S&P futures.
