Abstract:
1. A Masuda stick chart generation and display apparatus which expresses price trends of objects traded on the market, such as stocks, bonds, currencies, and commodities, using three Masuda stick curves, namely, a short-term Masuda stick curve, a medium-term Masuda stick curve, and a long-term Masuda stick curve corresponding to daily sticks, weekly sticks, and monthly sticks, respectively, comprising: a programmable computer processor; basic data storing unit which stores basic data including a series of daily price strings, weekly price strings, and monthly price strings going back a predetermined period from the present point in time, and a series of short-term moving average price strings, medium-term moving average price strings, and long-term moving average price strings related, respectively, to the series of daily price strings, weekly price strings, and monthly price strings, as well as a pair of neighboring average price strings which define upper and lower ends of daily sticks, weekly sticks, and monthly sticks, and stick color value strings which represent distinctions between dark and light colors for the daily sticks, weekly sticks, and monthly sticks; Masuda stick curve generating and drawing unit which generates and draws short-term, medium-term, and long-term Masuda stick curves related to daily sticks, weekly sticks, or monthly sticks based on the basic data stored in the basic data storing unit; and Masuda future stick curve generating and drawing unit which generates and draws short-term, medium-term, and long-term Masuda future stick curves related to the daily sticks or weekly sticks based on the basic data stored in the basic data storing unit means wherein the Masuda future stick curve generating and drawing unit comprises medium-term Masuda future daily stick curve generating and drawing unit which generates and draws a medium-term Masuda future daily stick string of a predetermined number of days after today: wherein the medium-term Masuda future daily stick curve generating and drawing unit comprises a first medium-term Masuda future daily stick string generating and drawing unit which, if a trend change in stick color value is detected with a first stick color value continuing for a predetermined number of times or more and then a second stick color value continuing for a predetermined number of times or more up to today in a medium-term Masuda daily stick curve for a predetermined number of most recent days, generates a medium-term Masuda future daily stick string for a predetermined number of days after today according to a predetermined rule corresponding to the detected trend; wherein the medium-term Masuda future daily stick curve generating and drawing unit comprises a second medium-term Masuda future daily stick string generating and drawing unit which determines a divergence value string of divergences between a daily price of today and daily prices of days earlier, by the number of days in a medium-term interval, than a predetermined number of future days, determines a breakdown of the divergence value string by polarity, and generates and draws a medium-term Masuda future daily stick string for a predetermined number of days after today based on determination as to which polarity a majority belongs and according to a predetermined rule.
