The other thing I've been wanting to try is plotting the derivative of a price chart Late answer here, Bramble, but perhaps you're looking for Rate of Change? Stockcharts definitely has that one, even for us non-paying subscribers. Anything that qualifies as a momentum indicator might satisfy your interest. I find momo indicators generally useful, but since the market price is typically a function of multiple oscillators of varying period, amplitude, and duration you'll always find a 'gotcha' somewhere. Derivatives need a function in the first place, so if you don't know or cannot approximate the function then you can't know the derivative.
