It's surprising to me that there are people out there that only look at charts and don't bother nor care about fundamentals of a company. If all you do is look at a chart to base your investing decisions on, how do you know what is going on with the company? Maybe that company just acquired some groundbreaking new technology or discovered a cure for cancer, and you would never know that by looking at a freaking chart. Correct me if I'm wrong, but people who short stocks seem to do this. They don't care what may be going on with a company, they try to short it anyway and a lot of them get burned in some cases... It doesn't pay to be ignorant. Seems very foolhardy if you ask me.
