Thats the one. thanks hk2. could you have used a color that was harder to see? (ggg). Yes we did close over it on thursday, but part of that is in how its drawn. if the line goes thru the low on march 31st, it pretty much is at the close on trs and above the high on wed. not saying my way is right and your interpretaion is wrong by any means, but that one change makes a differennce. steve
