An Early MoverNetwork Appliances8/14/02 at
900am
Click the Cylinder to bring up the chart.
Network Appliances is in a strong up-trend. We
could trade this stock as a counter-trend play.
It is also indicative of a potential change in
trend.
12
The Turn MaturesNasdaq 1008/14/02 at 1000am
More stocks turning up and green.
View from beneath the map.

More UpsideNasdaq 1008/14/02 at 1115am
Resistance
Note that this is the same level we had earlier
in the day (about 915). But, almost all of the
map is green! This provides confirmation that a
move is underway.
14
Should we exit?Nasdaq 1008/14/02 at 1215pm
Our first pullback. A primary value of the
consensus map is you see strength. The majority
of cylinders are still green, so we stay on board
with the move.
15
Ride em Cowboy!Nasdaq 1008/14/02 at 1245pm
By this point, the market is in a full-blown
rally, with very broad support. But dont get
cocky! We should investigate the red cylinders,
which is easy to do (just click them!)
16
