In the course of my weekend stock lists reviews, I was looking at some using
the two year charts at DGO. Happened to cross paths with PETM, which I have
noted for quite some time as a LLUR (Lower Left Upper Right). While this is
not an approved CANSLIM chart pattern, I have found that when combined with
solid CANSLIM criteria including RS and EPS, that money can be made even in
bad markets.

As I was looking at a two year chart instead of my customary one year chart,
I was interested in noting that this stock had formed a pretty classic
triple bottom pattern before beginning an impressive and long leg up. So I
went thru some more LLUR charts, as well as some others, and felt I ended up
getting a better picture on most than I got from the 12 month chart.  Even
tho many years ago I regularly worked with five year charts, I had
conditioned myself, due the volatility of past recent years, to focus only
on the prior 12 months.

I think from now on I must start screening my lists of new highs using a
longer time frame first, then switch back to a 12 month or shorter period
for more precise entry / exit points. For short or mid term traders, this
may not help, but for my long term investing I think it will add to my
confidence factor at least.
