Stock Swing Trading Charts

Our swing trading charts are based on the swing identification techniques made popular by William Dunnigan in his book One-Way Formula for Trading in Stocks and Commodities.

Unlike bar charts, these swing trading charts only show the pivot points of significant highs and lows. The high points are in green and lows in red. You can click on the points to see a display of the date it occurred, the value and rate per day of movement to that level. Up trends are identified by higher swing highs and higher swing lows. Down trends are just the reverse.

Also in this section you will find the following charts types. Click on these charts to see values.
