Charts, Russ, here's a good place to start. This is a complete online book. 199.234.225.19 I'd start with the simplest yet most effective indicators, trendlines, volume and candlesticks. You'll also want a charting site that allows you to draw your own trendlines. There are some free ones on the net I can provide links to. One of my simplest ma's to use to show possible trouble is the 40 day ma on an uptrending stock or index. I mentioned it again in a post to Jack yesterday...but I was too complacent and failed to act in a timely manner when it occurred. It's the red line around 4600 in chart at bottom of page. It coincided nicely with an upward trendline drawn from the dips. I didn't include that trendline in this chart because the red moving average sufficed. When those line were broken on a closing basis, something was amiss. Don't let the above TA site throw you by it's size and complexity. The basics do just fine. Message 13432917 geocities.com Stan
