April 7, 2008 Stock Market Recap

| 2 Comments

The indices remain stuck in a holding pattern. For the fourth session in a row they traded within relatively tight ranges and closed near last Tuesday's closing levels. It looks like the market will work off its short-term overbought condition simply by going sideways.

Quick question:

How do you get those annotated charts on to the web? It looks like they are charts off of stockcharts.com.. I just can't figure out how to get them annotated and posted onto a blog. Thanks!

After configuring the SharpChart the way you want it click the "Annotate" link beneath the chart. That will pop up a little java application that will let you annotate the chart.

From there I use SnagIt to take a screen capture of the annotated chart. Then I upload the image to my server.
