一位前美林公司的分析员老手就点数图有过如下说法:

the advantage of point-and-figure yses is that it is the most objective
type of technical ysis.点数图分析的优点是:它是所有技术分析工具中最具客观性的一类.

The intermediate term investments that go against the PAF ysis lose
money.违反点数图PAF 的中期投资往往输钱.

These charts send out “buy” or “sell” signals and there is no room for
subjectivity. 点数图发出买入卖出信号容不下主观性.意思是别报侥幸心理,别犹豫.

Although they are objective, as with any other technical ysis method,
they can be late or produce
whipsaws.尽管点数图发出的买入卖出信号具有客观性,同其它技术分析工具一样,它也可能会滞后或提前.

It is at times such as this when PAF charts are the most useful because
they are clear, objective, and unemotional. (While today’s markets are totally
emotional.) 特定的某些时侯,点数图是最有用的,因为它清晰,客观和非情绪化.今天的市场总是情绪化的!

PAF charts do not have a proportioned time scale.
点数图没有成比例的时间刻度.

The uptrend (or downtrend shown with O’s) is given the
benefit of the doubt in that a trend is not considered to be reversed until the
action heads at least 3 boxes below the most extreme X (or O) in a
column.
上升或下降趋势在点数图中是明确给出的,有利于解决疑惑,因为:一个趋势在进行之中就无须考虑或担心它是否反转,直到相反的走势走过了一个栏中的极点值至少三个格值时,才必须考虑!

When a new column is formed by this three box reversal, the
immediate trend is reversed and the new direction is given the benefit of the
doubt. 当新一栏被这个三格值翻转形成时,中期趋势被翻转,新方向也是明确给出的,很有利于解决疑惑.

A new column is thus started to the right in the opposite
direction as the last column. Buy and sell signals are generated when the
existing trend moves below (or above) the column of the same direction that is
already protruding in its trend’s direction.
新一栏开始在右方,与上一栏方向相反.当正在进行的趋势走到同一方向的栏柱的上方(或下方)时,买入卖出信号自然产生.
