My channel is so wide, both our theories can probably fit, as well as the
Titanic.  With a range of almost 150 S&P points, we're talking about a 1350
point range for the DJIA.

Since I lost all of my old graphs by changing data providers, and can't seem
to access my old ones, even by making a copy of the data, I'll have to play
with putting in my support lines again.  Wish I could remember what I did
