Actually, the HAMMER I was talking about is from CANDLESTICK theory.
Its a nice indicator.
Here's some basic 'sticks.

brkthru.com

The Cup and Saucer is just what it sounds like. You're looking for a nice long base (ex-INTC base stayed between 72 and 76 for about 3 months)
At the end of the basing action (the handle) it will take a dip and return to where it started (the cup). The time to buy would be when it breaks out to the upside.

Look at a chart of INTC. Go back to MAY, JUNE and JULY (96). JULY is the CUP. May and June were the Handle.
(BTW- The 16th of JULY formed a perfect HAMMER which made it even more enticing. I like combining the Japanese Candlesticks with Western charting. Works good)

If you were using the Cup and Saucer for a buying indicator, you'd be buying right at the end of JULY when it broke to the upside. It went STRAIGHT UP after that.

Am I helping yet?<GG> Hope so. I remember I didn't get it at first.
