Thanks for the reply, yes this is an old trademan's trick. Measure something
4 inches one way, 3 the other, and if if is 5 inches between, then you have
a square. I still don't know how that is getting anyone a target. Here is a
simplified example of what I mean.

If the starting point were 10 (the high) and you subtracted a down move of 4
points and got 6 (the low), and it was 3 days in time. (4x4=16 and 3x3=9) so
16+9=25 and the square root of 25 is 5. Would you subtract 5 from 6 (the
low) and say the target was 1? Of subtract 5 from 10 (the high) and say the
target is 5?
