Gary, seasonality is dynamic - i.e. it changes from year to year, 
sometimes in a predictable way.  A 10-year avg may not be that useful.

Seasonality is very interesting, but not so easy to implement 
(properly) in MetaStock.  I've personally already spent 100's of hours 
and serious $ in third-party programming, but I'm only half-way to a 
release of a useful seasonality kit for MetaStock.
