You can see an example of chart description in English using the correct vocabulary and structure. The Microsoft share price began 2000 at just over $110. Over the next three months it fluctuated dramatically, falling as low as $90 before returning to original level. However, in March 2000 it suddenly plummeted, loosing over $40 by April. Although the speed of the fall slowed slightly, it continued down to $60 by May. A brief recovery took the prices back to $80, where it remained stable until July. It then started to decline steadily over the next three months falling as low as $50 by November. The year 2000 ended more encouragingly for Microsoft with shares back at the $70. However, 2001 started badly with shares dropping to a two-year low of $43 by the end of January. A reasonably quick recovery took shares back above $60 in February and further steady progress saw them back above $70 by May. Unfortunately, prices fell sharply again, back down to almost $50 by October. The shares recovered well over the last two months to finish at the $70 mark.
