MS2 now includes Manhattan Analysis

Manhattan charts are so called because the resultant plots, if shown as a histogram, have the appearance of a skyscraper skyline. The algorithm is very complex but the result is simple - it shows with considerable accuracy the actual points of significant changes in a time series plot. CUSUM charts are also used for this purpose (and provided within MS2) but they lack the accuracy of Manhattan.

By altering the sensitivity level the algorithm can be fine tuned for each time series plot. In MS2, sensitivities of 1%, 5% or 10% can be selected.
