Hi Lisa, I'm not clear which chart you're referring to but I assume it's this one.
geocities.com

Using the weighted 6-10 crossover. Buys are the green arrows or more specifically when the green moving average (weighted 6 day) crosses over the red.

Sells are the red arrows or when the red moving average (weighted 10 day) dips below the the green.

It's very effective in indices and stocks that have some movement, obviously less so in flat trending situations.

There is some danger in using it AGAINST the trend which is why a weekly chart becomes extremely helpful!!!

Obviously it shouldn't be used in a vacuum....but if one has the discipline to sell...it keeps you on the right side of the stock price.

Of course it works for shorting as well.

The link discussion with Peggy was the following site...she wanted to know how it could be used for similar results.

Good luck,

Hi Lisa,
I pmed Stan but it's such a cool site, I should have posted it for everyone - sorry. Try:
equis.com

You can do all sorts of amazing things - click help for ideas (drawing trendlines is one of my favorites. Have fun! I'm guessing they update in the late afternoon or early evening...I'm not sure how quickly you can get a look at the day's changes.
