The following comes from Dave Wallace.
...I made a few improvements to last month's STARC channel plot for Quotes Plus. I fixed the channel width indicator
that appears at the bottom of the plot. This shows a maximum when the channel width is at a minimum -- often when
the stock is making a change in direction. Can you include the attached JPG file
in the September meeting notice and let Quotes-Plus users know that they can get a copy of the Excel 97 spreadsheet
from me at: semdmw@concentric.net?
