Part of our process here at Chartsmarter.com is to navigate through hundreds of charts on a nightly basis, and try to deliver solid, actionable ideas for the next trading day. What we look for in our potential longs in nice, controlled, smooth patterns, that construct good sound bases. Think of it, as you are the CEO of our own portfolio. Your holdings are your employees, and you want to see superior, steady performance. On the other hand, when you notice erratic behavior from a worker, it should raise concerns.
