Earl,
I understand why you would want to see a scale that doubles price for a
fixed vertical distance, I agree with this and use these charts all the
time. I don't understand why you would use a scale that considers a move
from 1000 to 10000 to be the same order of magnitude as a move from 0-1000.
IMHO the move from 1000-2000 is the same magnitude as 2000-4000, this is
lost on a pure log scale as you seem to be using on your chart. I would
like to ask you to defend the validity of your channel with specific
reference to the scale you are using. It seems to me that the 0-2000 area
of your chart is given undue importance by virtue of it being enlarged on a
scale basis relative to the rest of your chart...
TIA
Zaheer
