Stock Charts (Through January 21)
Each link displays two daily price-monitoring charts going back as far as 2010. Price series are downloaded from Yahoo Finance. The first chart shows the daily price series with a smoothed trend. Historical fluctuations around trend indicate inherent volatility in the price series. The second chart shows a smoothed trend of daily price percent changes. Ideally we like to see the trend moving up, indicating price acceleration. Conversely, a downward trend indicates price deceleration. Our two charts can be used together to visualize where we have been, where we are, and where we might be going in the near term.
These charts do not represent buy or sell recommendations. They simply provide visual price trends in a format that is not generally available elsewhere. But, of course, we are only showing interesting stock charts from a broad screen.

Stock & Specialty ETF Charts (Screened)
Our screen is very simple. Both charts have to be trending up and the second chart has to be above 0.2% at the end. However, we also require that price in the first chart be no more than 5% above trend to avoid froth. Moreover, to show a modicum of consistent growth, we require that average daily price change over recent 1,000 trading days exceeds 0.08%, that daily price change standard deviation over that range does not exceed 4%, and that daily price change coefficient of variation (standard deviation / average) over that range does not exceed 30.
In this soft market, screen doesn't yield much.
