rising wedges

I've added blue lines indicating the Rising Wedge patterns to my
charts for the Dow and S&P500.  http://coolhistory.com/ChipsCharts

On the airplane today I looked for these patterns in the past history
of the Dow and S&P500.  I was a fun exercise - I thought I spotted
several but without confirming volume (I used the NYSE volume), I'm
not sure how real they were.

I became very interested when I thought I saw one right before the
1987 crash and another one right before the Oct. mini-crash.  Upon
further study, I've decided that they formed too quickly for me to
have spotted at the time.  I urge anyone else who's interested to look
for the patterns themselves and let me know what you see.
