1)  Thanks Lionel and thanks Al,

2)  in my observation

     all peaks are NOT a the same level  in BRCM  but it's only my humble
opinion :)


    " Similar to the head and shoulders except that all peaks
       are at the same level "

     have had now 16 winning trades in a row(mainly  in this puppy) and the
party
     isnot over yet.........................

    (look out the losing one is never far away)
