<DIV><FONT size=2>It was <in its original

<DIV><FONT size=2>O</FONT><FONT size=2>f which </FONT><FONT size=2>the

<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2><STRONG>MACD Histogram</DIV></STRONG></FONT>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Only 2 (!!) out of the whole bunch of List posts
recently sent, held also </FONT><FONT size=2>the </FONT><FONT
size=2>correct one :</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>"a plain MSK build-in MACD indicator for its
plot turned <via Properties|Style> into a Histogram's bar styled

<DIV><FONT size=2>Whatever else that was sent here also, can be anything,
possibly trading indicators, but none of them were</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>This naturaly creates confusion and seems to be a

<DIV><FONT size=2>But that is surely not very funny for its

<DIV><FONT size=2>it's also </FONT><FONT size=2>a pain for the

<DIV><FONT size=2>On usage of the %B oscillator in various markets, one will
