chartists have very personal and highly subjective customization needs. Not your forte.

Amen to that! Scottrade has charts but I don't even use those. I use Yahoo's charts because the only things meaningful to me are 50 and 200DMA's, Bollinger Bands, and what the current price trend and recent volume are.

Although lately I've taken an interest in the Max Pain theory of Options and am mentally working out a way to programmatically test its accuracy in predicting movement of a large basket of stocks. My hypothesis being that Max Pain might prove to be usefully accurate in stocks with comparatively little institutional involvement. The idea being that options writers in such issues tend to be smarter than options buyers.
