Looming darkness

Although I write about the stock markets, but the subject line above is equally likely for the skylines of Mumbai nowadays. It rained last evening and I got nice hot pakoras at home along with a cool cheeku milkshake. Morning also saw quite a bit of rain and then now again it has started raining after a longish darkening of the skies. It seems the stock market is also playing hide and seek today, going up and down with the whims and fancies like that of the rain Gods of Mumbai.

GAIL which had gained considerably yesterday after the fuel price hikes, has come down again. 3i-infotech a stock I take small amount of pride in buying, was up considerably since yesterday, but now again its moving downwards.

Nowadays, I am trying to link my new portfolio tracker with a charting prorgam so that I can track intr-day as well as day-end data charts. I would also like to create a chart for my portfolio on similar lines. But still rgappling with the java coding of swing and graphics. Tried to install iReport for jasper reports yesterday, but couldn't make head or tail of it. Although it gives a lot of good options of creating charts. Would appreciate if someone could give me a good tutorial link.

In the next phase, I will start with Fundamental analysis. I am already capable of downloading online news. Will have to make more advances in these two together, and then will need to link this with the technical analysis.
