Trades; I traded off numbers I wrote on recipe card until about three years ago. Mostly prior three days highs and lows.
I did swing trades and used the highs and lows for entry and stop loss'. I got pretty good at it but never make anything but pocket change. My broker made more money off those trades then I did I think. I went to a broker that gave me streaming charts. One look at them charts and I canceled the Wall Street Journal. I don't know how I ever traded without charts.
I still don't draw lines on them, just look and see what they are saying. I would not attempt to put the analyst on a chart like you do. I understand what you do but it would take me two weeks to do a chart. It's just not in me.
Thanks
