Acknowledgments
In the first edition of this book, I recommended that an investor have charting software and access to an online data service to perform visual analysis. Thanks to the increasing number of Internet resources, all one needs now is a good charting website, which eliminates the need for a separate data service. In other words, all you need to do is log on and start charting. One such charting service is
StockCharts.com. As the chief technical analyst (and part owner) for that award-winning site, I’ve had some say in its development. Needless to say, I’m very proud of the result. All of the charts (and visual tools) in this book are taken from that website. I’d like to thank Chip Anderson, president of
StockCharts.com, for giving me permission to do that. I’d also like to thank Mike Kivowitz of Leafygreen.info for his help in producing the artwork. More information on
StockCharts.com can be found at the end of the book. It’s a good place to start your own visual analysis.
