P&F Charts

This Demonstration implements point and figure (P&F) charting of stock prices. Before the advent of modern stock charts, P&F charting was a traditional charting technique. It is still very popular today because it is very simple to maintain by hand and reduces a stock chart to its most compact form, making it much easier to search for patterns in price behavior.
