ducksoup . . . Thanks for pointing out the difference in the
charts. That's news to me--I was unaware that an adjustment
was being made. The GoogleFinance charts are also adjusted
like the SharpCharts. I guess they do that because the
30-cent dividend paid out every month is reducing the value of the
company as you go back in time. Or is it?
For the last ten trading days in the TLT charts (FreeStockCharts
vs. SharpCharts) there is very little adjustment. When you
get back to Feb '09 the difference is more that $5. That could make
a difference in how one interprets a chart.
Is the current-day trading price for TLT always the same or very
close in both charts? Are the historical prices in the
SharpChart constantly being adjusted as the company pays out more
money through dividends? What is happening here? How
should one think about this?

to analyze trends and potential support/resistance in the 30 yr
treasury bond price/interest rates you can just use the tyx 30 yr
bond yield for analysis, then play the trend with either TLT or
TBT
When you look at historical values for tyx, at least your are
comparing apples to apples
I was surprised at the difference in data between services,
would have assumed they all use the same numbers
