<DIV>&nbsp;All,
<P class=MsoBodyText><SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
</SPAN>I spent a lot of time looking at the charts and finally decided that I 
wanted to go with some smaller cap stocks that had recently broken out of an 
Intermediate Term Down Trend Channel (ITDTC) and established a new Short Term Up 
Trend Channel (STUTC).<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>I also 
wanted it to have finished its first correction in the STUTC and be showing some 
up side movement by bouncing up off the bottom of the STUTC.<SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>I wanted one stock in the Internet group 
since that is still the group with the strongest momentum and the other in the 
Pharmaceutical Group since it looked like it was finally showing some signs of 
life.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>I finally came up with 
Cybercash Inc (CYCH) in the Internet Group and Watson Pharmaceuticals (WPI) in 
the Pharmaceutical Group.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>CYCH 
makes virtual cash registers ring with software that makes online shopping 
secure and simple. It offers secure payment transaction services that let online 
sellers accept credit card and check payments, and services that store 
consumers' payment information -- digital "wallets" -- for simpler shopping. WPI 
makes generic and branded drugs, focusing on niche pharmaceuticals. It offers 
generic versions of brand-name products such as cardiovascular drugs Lopressor 
and Inderal, analgesics Vicodin and Lortab, and asthma drugs Proventil and 
Ventolin. </P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt"><SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </SPAN>CYCH at 10.94 is in a 
STUTC with the top at 14 3/8 and the bottom at 9 3/8.<SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>It hit an all time high of 24 on 
4/14/99.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>After that it went into an 
ITDTC finally hitting a low of 6.69 on 9/29/99.<SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>It started its current STUTC from that 
low and broke out of its ITDTC on 10/5/99.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; 
</SPAN>It bounced off the bottom of its STUTC four times before the bounce last 
Monday so we have a well-defined STUTC.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; 
</SPAN>I got a Tema StochRSI 21 &amp; 55 buy signal on 10/12/99.<SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>The fundamentals are what you expect 
from an Internet stock; fast growing revenues (66% per yr) and no earnings.<SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>At least it doesn&#8217;t have any debt.<SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>I&#8217;m going to set my target just under 
the all time high at 23 and my stop just under the STUTC at 8 ¾.<?xml:namespace

STUTC with the top at 45 ½ and the bottom at 34 ¾.<SPAN

12/31/98 and then went into an ITDTC to a low of 26 ½ on 10/7/99.<SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>It started its current STUTC from there 
and broke out of its ITDTC on 11/03/99.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; 
</SPAN>It moved up strongly for two months before pulling back to form the 
bottom of the STUTC last week.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>It 
started a strong bounce off the bottom of the channel in the last two days.<SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>I got a MetaStock Tema ROC buy signal on 
11/2/99.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>The fundamentals are good 
with a price/sales a little high at 5.63, ROE a good 14%, Debt/Equity a low 
0.14, and 5 yr annualized revenue and earnings growth of 51% and 27% 
respectively.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes">&nbsp; </SPAN>I&#8217;ll set my target

Has anyone tried writing an exploration or indicator to find a "W" shaped
pattern, either in price or some indicator (ie. macd x-over)?  Example;

higher high----------*
-----*   *
*   * * *
* *   *------higher low
*-----------
