Fatboy:  I found the best way to start is to copy some dynamic charts that you see on the blog and insert different ticker symbols.  Also watch the watchlist stocks in your own favorites list in Stockcharts.  You will learn a lot that way.

    Notice that the shorter term charts change direction much more often than the longer term ones.  I perfer to use the longer term ones and mostly follow the daily RENKO charts.

    Be patient and don't fight the trend (unless the trend changes but I have found that it is better to wait until it changes than to try to predict it) Most of us have lost money by tryging to predict a change.  Hope this helps.  FinaM
