 When adding cycle annotations,​ it is sometimes helpful to measure the first two cycle lows with vertical lines. For a 20 day cycle, place a vertical line on the first low, count 20 days and then place a second vertical line. Start drawing the cycle annotation from the first vertical line and extend it to the second vertical line for the first 20-day cycle. The subsequent cycles will also be 20-days. ​ When adding cycle annotations,​ it is sometimes helpful to measure the first two cycle lows with vertical lines.

 The snapshot below comes from the SharpCharts settings for cycle analysis. First, a price plot can be made "​invisible"​ under Chart Attribute/​Type. Second, the Log Scale box can be selected to view price moves as percentage changes. Third, it is sometimes necessary to add extra bars to the chart to extend cycle lines into the future. Fourth, a displaced 5-day SMA was used as an overlay. Finally, the Detrended Price Oscillator is set at 20 days and shown in the indicator window below. ​ The snapshot below comes from the SharpCharts settings for cycle analysis.
