Reader Gary asks:

Do you use IBD, and if so, what parts do you find useful for stock suggestions?  What charting software do you use?  I really enjoy reading your stock comments.
 

Gary, I used to read IBD religously and found it a great source of information.  But, for me, all I really need is a decent charting program and the ability to write some scans.  For that, TC/2000 is perfect. (www.tc2000.com)

As for other sources of information, us technicians don't like to be too distracted by those annoying fundamentals!  That said, I read the WSJ daily (print and online) and scan the Fox Biz and News sites...mainly as preparation for my TV stuff!
