Hi Bob,
Since the angle is so dependent upon the graphic, I think it's
not reliable. I think the trendline needs to be standardized. I am working
on that aspect; so when a signal occurs, regardless of the nominal value of
the market, the signal would occur at the same time and point on any other
market.
Thanks,
Michael
