Introductory comment1. T.A can be used on:
● company share price charts● commodity price charts● foreign currency (forex) charts
2. T.A is not 100% guaranteed, nor 100% reliable
3. Using T.A can give an unfair advantage over the buy-and-hold investors.
4. Also need to use wise money management and risk management principles.
