I must have not recalled correctly - the $INDU is the one
that shows theoretical values it appears, but it is still
the one that I look at.

If I look at my Quote window, I'm seeing a high for $INDU of
8064.09. But if I look within the intraday chart, the high is
clearly showing as 8020.32.

I conclude that $INDU is showing the theoretical values in the
quote window.

Sorry for any confusion!
