Hi Eric,

I really appreciate your post. Am travelling, and must reply more fully later. Maybe tonight.

Initial thoughts. 1) For active stocks, intraday swings can be lost to the P&F chartists by having the rule of posting only to one column each day. However, that is the limit of end-of-day data. So,in the future, computers may update P&F charts by scanning intraday (say hourly) data for important moves, then updating the historical charts with intraday "events", and perhaps drawing a single candle for the current day and changing it as the day progresses. This seems entirely within the ability of modern-day computing. Perhaps to start, this would be done on a smaller universe of stocks such as the S&P500. 2) Even with 24-hour trading, we can still "compute" and report every 24-hours. No big deal.

Always appreciate your posts! Glad to hear your are deeply into candles. Come to the LV Money Show in June and let's see if Greg Morris will let us buy dinner. Would be a great evening. Every bit as interesting as P&F, and they do complement each other.

Dennis
