Hi All,
Here is the latest version of the CANSLIM FAQ. This month I added a few new
sections based on threads from the month:
(1) Thank You Etiquette
(2) Including Graphs in Your Posting
(3) Reading Resources for CANSLIMers
Katherine
=========
This FAQ is also available at: http://WallStreet-LLC.com/canslim/CANSLIMFAQ.doc
or http://WallStreet-LLC.com/canslim/CANSLIMFAQ.zip (zipped version for those
who are having trouble displaying the document within their browser)
Scope of discussion, Etiquette:
Here are a couple of quotes from the welcome email that Jeff Salisbury, the list
owner and host, sends to each new member:
"This is an unmoderated discussion group whose purpose is to provide a forum for
individuals to:
1.. Discuss the ideas and concepts of CANSLIM.
2.. Add to the concepts of CANSLIM from personal experience.
3.. Exchange sources of information on the internet and software that can be
used to select stocks using the CANSLIM methodology.
4.. Discuss specific equities and how they may or may not meet the CANSLIM
criteria. "
"Anyone who resorts to rudeness, flaming, and personal attacks will be removed
from our group."
“By signing up for this list, you agree to the following: This list is a
private list. All information that you take from this list is for your private
use only. Commercial use of this information is forbidden.”
Thank You Etiquette
"Thank you's" are always appropriate and appreciated by those who spend the time
to reply. However, they are generally best sent offline unless you have a
followup comment or question to add to the subject thread. For those new to the
list, each sender's individual email is always included in the header of their
message. Copy their address, use your "forward" button (instead of "reply") and
paste their individual email into the "to" line. I also add "offlist" to the
front of the subject line to provide some indication that this reply is to them
directly.
Including Graphs in your Posting
You can attach very small graphics to your email, but keep in mind that not all
members enable their email to receive attachments. If the attachment is very
large, the email server will reject your email. An alternative (and far better)
solution is to upload your attachment to the CANSLIM FTP site or to your own FTP
site. Include the link to the attachment in your email. For instructions on
uploading to the CANSLIM FTP site, see:
http://www.breakoutwatch.com/katherine/FTPUploadInstructions.txt
Here are some general instructions on capturing charts and adding annotations:
Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2003 11:43 AM
Subject: [CANSLIM] How to include graphs
From: On Behalf Of Pritish Shah
To include graphs, here is what I do.
1) Go to Yahoo and get the appropriate chart
2) Right click on the chart and select "Save the picture as..."
a) If you are on XP, select "*.png" Paintbrush file
b) If you are on any other Windows system, save it as a bitmap file
3) Edit the graph with Paint
4) Draw the lines or put in the text wherever needed
5) Save the graph
6) Use your email program to "attach" the graph.
