Katherine and all-
I for one think you should be publicizing cwhcharts.com more, not less. Because you are conservative about doing that, let me take this opportunity to do it for you. I've looked through the site, and think it is an excellent resource, both for watch lists generation and analysis. Even if you find only one trade off that service per year, you will recoup the cost, and probably quite a bit more.
 
I have no affiliation with that site nor with Katherine. I just like the work.

Hi Jeff,

The breakout alert service (cwhcharts.com) is one that Mike Gibbons and I
developed. My posts here on the list are as an individual CANSLIM investor,
so while I mention the service in my reply to Tomas in order to give a
complete overview of the options, you can probably understand why I didn't
mention it by name.

See it at www.cwhcharts.com. I've recently written a new "How to Use our
Site" tutorial that gives an overview of using the service in either a 10 or
20 minute a day approach. See it by clicking on the "How to..." menu at the
site. It shows how we compile the daily watchlists, provide due diligence
info (Canslim Evaluator, Industry Charts, list of Industry Components,
etc.), and generate the intraday alerts themselves.

We make some of the components, such as the our general charts (with RSRank,
U/D ratio, RSLine plotted over time) and the Canslim Evaluator (and imbedded
links to our Industry charts and components), available to the CANSLIM list
members in limited use as a thanks to those who contribute here. You can
also access the forums where there are more general tutorials on subjects
such as using RSLines, etc.

For the CANSLIM list members:
Charts link: http://www.cwhcharts.com/charts/kmchart.php
Canslim Evaluator link: http://www.cwhcharts.com/canslim/

You'll notice I use my own charts when annotating my analysis of a stock.
That's something Mike developed for me (even before I joined the site) after
DailyGraphs Online (DGO) threatened me with legal action for making original
annotations on *their* charts and posting them here on the public CANSLIM
list. Necessity is ever the mother of invention! That's also our motivation
to make our charts available to members here, so that they can feel to use
them and annotate them to their heart's content without fear of retribution.

If you have any specific questions, please be sure to take them offlist.

Katherine

Hi Katherine,

Thanks for all the info. you published over the
weekend!

You mention a Breakout Alert Service. May I ask the
name of this service? I'm not ready to subscribe, but
it would be nice to know for the future.

Best Regards, jeff gasta
