The Base Finder is a powerful tool to identify consolidation periods in a stock's advance. With this indicator, traders can effortlessly spot consolidation patterns on their charts providing them with a deeper understanding of the stock's price action.
Base Finder goes beyond identifying consolidation patterns, as it also offers key information about the consolidation such as the depth, length, pivot point, and the number of accumulation or distribution weeks throughout the pattern. This information allows traders to compare and analyze the best basing patterns quickly and easily.
With Base Finder, traders can differentiate between a Flat Base, a High Tight Flag, or a consolidation, like a cup with handle or double bottom base.
This tool helps traders of all levels train their eye to identify potential trading opportunities that might have otherwise gone unnoticed.
Base Finder is a must-have tool for any trader, especially those that have studied the work of William O’Neil. Base Finder stacks up base for base with MarketSmith.
Easily customize the settings, from the look to the intricacies of a consolidation.

A short stroke forms over just two weeks
The first week is marked by a very sharp advance, 10% or greater, followed by a tight range in the second week. Volume should be lower in the second week than in the first, and the stock typically doesn't eclipse the first week's high.

Base Finder now identifies Ants. Ants can be toggled on or off in the settings menu.
Ants are based on David Ryan's study of what made some stocks to superior moves higher from their bases, while others only made modest gains.
David identified 3 key characteristics:
The stock was up 12 or more of the past 15 days
Volume was up 20% or more over the past 15 days
Price was up at least 20% over the past 15 days
Ants are displayed on the chart as small boxes over the high of candles. By hovering over the most recent "ant", you can view a data label displaying the following details:
How many days of the last 15 days were up
The price gain of the last 15 days
The % volume was above average for the last 15 days
*Ants are only displayed on a daily timeframe
