Guy,
      I'm getting mixed responses running slightly in favor of html format.
I guess you just can't please everyone <G>.  The html format is definitely
easier for me, maybe I'll just send the targets and stops in html format to
the ones who get my email charts.

>> Short Term
>> Down Trend Channel (STDTC) it broke out of on its run to the 40 1/4 high.

act

12/11/98
>> low just before the HC breakout to Thursday's close.  I'll use the 22 1/4
