Hi Jan,

First, a big THANK YOU for relaying to Mr. D the desire by a number of us at SI to have relative strength charts added to the cheap seats at the DWA site. If that comes to pass, I will sing your praise for ever and ever and nominate you for the monthly SI Most Influential award.

Since you have ma main mentor's ear, perhaps at a convenient time you can ask his thoughts on constructing the bullish resistance and bearish support lines.

I ask this because I hand chart a number of stocks, and create the referenced trend lines as taught by Michael Burke, from his book "Point & Figure Construction and Formations.". His was the first P&F book I read and thus, have always constructed them his way. Burke instructs that the bullish resistance line needs a wall of O's to construct (at least two) and the bearish support line needs a wall of X's to construct (at least two).

Mr. D's reference to creating these two trend lines requires a "Wall" but, it doesn't specifically require two. Also, one of the examples from his book depicts just one X as a "Wall".

Thanks, and have a great weekend.

Eric
