<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT><FONT size=2> I
haven't the slightest idea <G>. I asked Equis Support that question
several months ago and they never answered it. It does help if "snap
to price" is not checked in trend line properties, but it does still moves,
just not as much. My work around is to use a zoom view that shows the
entire trend line I'm using for the stops when I'm setting the stop
price.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>Could someone please explain to me why METASTOCK's trend
lines change values when you change the ZOOM SCALES (- +).
