[sharechat] charting

From:	"Jared Honore" <nzeaglei@hotmail.com>

hey all.

There has been a lot of talk about charting recently, and i have been 
attempting some of this myself. I have a question that i am sure some of you 
will be able to help me with. When drawing a chart does it make any 
difference if you include non trading days on the x axis? I am using Excel, 
which i know is not the best out there, but it is sufficient. The problem is 
you cant have a time scale that skips the non trading days. Now this may not 
be a problem if this has no negative effect on the chart. But by my logic it 
would, by 'stretching' the data out, and 'skewing' the trends. if anyone is 
interested i have attatched what i have done for a 30 day FRU, one with non 
trading days, and the other without.

cheers,
jared
