Your instructions got me right where I needed to go. I changed the associated file from Paint to Internet Explorer. I am now able to view the .gif files. It would have been nice if Microsoft Help could have given me that info. Those Help files always seem to not have the specific answer I need. Have a great Day.

Now that you've pointed it out to me I can see the divergence. TRR held up OK today losing .50 with 1/2 adv. If it doesnt break out next week I think the worse case on the downside is 25. Looks like it could end up trading in the 25 to 33 range for a while.
