Why this is harder than it looks
Almost nobody beats 3 out of 5 consistently, and that is the point. A chart that has run up for two years looks like it must keep going, or like it must be due a fall, depending entirely on what you already believe. Neither is information. If you find yourself certain, that is worth noticing, because the certainty is coming from the shape rather than from anything the shape knows.
When you want the real ones with the labels on: the charts, the market boards, or what a lump sum in any of them would be worth now.
