TAILIEUCHUNG - POINT & FIGURE CHARTS REVISITED

When creating a point and figure chart, it is helpful to determine the “action points” for each day. If a chart is in a column of O’s, as was the case at the end of May (the last olumn in Figure 1), the first action point is the price that is one box lower than the last. | TECHNICAL ANALYSIS POINT FIGURE CHARTS REVISITED By Wayne A. Thorp In the August 2000 issue of the AAII Journal we introduced the seemingly forgotten art of point and figure charting. These charts illustrate the underlying supply and demand for a security while ignoring the passage of time. You can find this article at the AAII Web site using the search tool. Member feedback prompts us to offer this supplement to the article correcting a few mistakes and more explicitly laying out how the sample point and figure chart was plotted. CORRECTION The time period for Figure 1 in the August article is mislabeled. The chart for Cisco is stated as covering the period January 4 1999 through April 31 1999. This chart reproduced here in Figure 1 actually covers the time period January 4 1999 through May 31 2000. The high low price table in Figure 2 in the August article shows italicized dates corresponding to those dates where a shift in column takes place from X s to O s or O s to X s. June 5 is incorrectly italicized when instead June 6 was the date to shift from a column of X s to a column of O s. The explanation below walks you through this shift. One final note on the August article Figure 6 shows a double-top formation at 37 which we failed to label. POINT FIGURE STEP-BY-STEP To walk through the construction of a point and figure chart look at Figure 2 here. The table on the left shows high and low prices for Cisco for the period May 31 2000 through June 27 2000. On the right side is the point and figure chart Wayne A. Thorp is assistant financial analyst of AAII. constructed using this data which is a continuation of the chart in Figure 1. When creating a point and figure chart it is helpful to determine the action points for each day. If a chart is in a column of O s as was the case at the end of May the last column in Figure 1 the first action point is the price that is one box lower than the last. If the price falls to this point we add another O to the
