Gottfried, you are a god sent! I left these guys long ago in favor of bigcharts.com. Thanks for bringing me back; they sure have come a long way. I will use them as my primary charting web. There are two advantages that bigcharts still holds, better time span and volume-by price. Volume-by-price does a fair job of showing support and resistance. But its value shrinks as you increase the time scale. thanks again, ST

Gottfried, Stockcharts looks like an interesting site, but I am used to the simple O(pen)H(igh)L(ow)C(lose) line chart style. I find the terminology of candle interpretation, including such esoteric names as double dorjii, to be particularly confusing. Line charts are much simpler in my view. If there is a feature that you find particularly appealing about stockcharts, I'd like to know about it. I personally prefer bigcharts interactive charting capabilities with its custom time and logarithmic display. Determining support values is more an art than a science I believe, as reasonable people may differ in in what they consider to be trendlines. Sam
