Introduction
It is the one type of approach for Security Analysis.
Technicians (also known as quantitative analysts or chartists) usually look at price, volume and psychological indicators over time.
They are looking for trends and patterns in the data that indicate future price movements.

Technical analysis is the attempt to forecast stock prices on the basis of market-derived data.( i.e. Demand and Supply).
What Is Technical Analysis? Technical analysis is a method of evaluating securities by analyzing the statistics generated by market activity, such as past prices and volume. Technical analysts do not attempt to measure a security's intrinsic value, but instead use charts and other tools to identify patterns that can suggest future activity

Basic Assumption
The Market Discount Everything. Price Moves In Trends. History tends to repeat itself

Dow Theory
This theory was first stated by Charles Dow in a series of columns in the WSJ between 1900 and 1902.
Dow (and later Hamilton and Rhea) believed that market trends forecast trends in the economy.
A change in the trend of the DJIA must be confirmed by a trend change in the DJTA in order to generate a valid signal.

Dow Theory Trends (1)
Primary Trend Called “the tide” by Dow, this is the trend that
defines the long-term direction (up to several years). Others have called this a “secular” bull or bear market.
Secondary Trend Called “the waves” by Dow, this is shorter-term
departures from the primary trend (weeks to months) Day to day fluctuations
Not significant in Dow Theory

Does Dow Theory Work?
According to Martin Pring, if you had invested $44 in 1897 and followed all buy and sell signals, by 1981 you would have accumulated about $18,000.
If you had simply invested $44 and held that portfolio, by 1981 you would have accumulated about $960.

Elliot Wave Principle (1)
R.N. Elliot formulated this idea in a series of articles in Financial World in 1939.
Elliot believed that the market has a rhythmic regularity that can be used to predict future prices.
The Elliot Wave Principle is based on a repeating 8-wave cycle, and each cycle is made up of similar shorter-term cycles (“Big fleas have little fleas upon their backs to bite 'em - little fleas have smaller fleas and so on ad infinitem”).
Elliot Wave adherents also make extensive use of the Fibonacci series.

Does Elliot Wave Work?
Who knows? One of the biggest problems with Elliot Wave is that no two practitioners seem to agree on the wave count, and therefore on the prediction of what’s to come.
Robert Prechter (the most famous EW practitioner) made several astoundingly correct predictions in the 1980’s, but hasn’t been so prescient since (he no longer gets much press attention).
For example, in 1985 he predicted that the market would peak in 1987 (correct), but he thought it would peak at 3686 (± 100 points).
The DJIA actually peaked on 25 August 1987 at 2722.42, more than 960 points lower.

The Use Of Trend
A trend is really nothing more than the general direction in which a security or market is headed
One of the most important concepts in technical analysis
![Page 15: Technical Analysis By Pantej](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/55492f22b4c9059f4c8c08ec/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Channels A channel, or channel lines, is the addition of
two parallel trend lines that act as strong areas of support and resistance

The Importance of Trend
Two important sayings in technical analysis 1. "the trend is your friend" 2. "don't buck the trend."
![Page 20: Technical Analysis By Pantej](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/55492f22b4c9059f4c8c08ec/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Support & Resistance
Support and resistance lines indicate likely ends of trends.
Resistance results from the inability to surpass prior highs.
Support results from the inability to break below to prior lows.
What was support becomes resistance, and vice-versa.
Support Resistance
Breakout

Cont… As you can see in Figure, support is the price level
through which a stock or market seldom falls (illustrated by the blue arrows). Resistance, on the other hand, is the price level that a stock or market seldom surpasses (illustrated by the red arrows).
![Page 22: Technical Analysis By Pantej](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/55492f22b4c9059f4c8c08ec/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Cont..
Why Does it Happen? These support and resistance levels are seen as
important in terms of market psychology and supply and demand. Support and resistance levels are the levels at which a lot of traders are willing to buy the stock (in the case of a support) or sell it (in the case of resistance).
![Page 23: Technical Analysis By Pantej](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/55492f22b4c9059f4c8c08ec/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Cont..
Round Numbers and Support and Resistance Round numbers like 10, 20, 35, 50, 100 and
1,000 tend be important in support and resistance levels because they often represent the major psychological turning points at which many traders will make buy or sell decisions.

Volume
What is Volume? Volume is simply the number of shares or
contracts that trade over a given period of time, usually a day. The higher the volume, the more active the security.
Why Volume is Important ? 1. It is used to confirm trends and chart patterns. 2.Movement influences by higher and lower
volumes.

What Is A Chart ?
A chart is simply a graphical representation of a series of prices over a set time frame.
For example, a chart may show a stock's price movement over a one-year period, where each point on the graph represents the closing price for each day the stock is traded

Types of Charts
There are four main types of charts that are used by investors and traders depending on the information that they are seeking and their individual skill levels
1.The Line Chart 2.The Bar Chart 3.The Candlestick Chart 4. The Point and Figure Chart
![Page 29: Technical Analysis By Pantej](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062404/55492f22b4c9059f4c8c08ec/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Line Chart

Point & Figure charts are independent of time.
An X represents an up move. An O represents a down move. The Box Size is the number of
points needed to make an X or O.
The Reversal is the price change needed to recognize a change in direction.
Typically, P&F charts use a 1-point box and a 3-point reversal.

Head and Shoulders
This formation is characterized by two small peaks on either side of a larger peak.
This is a reversal pattern, meaning that it signifies a change in the trend.

Average Directional Index
The ADX is a combination of two price movement measures: the positive directional indicator (+DI) and the negative directional indicator (-DI).
The ADX measures the strength of a trend but not the direction.

MACD
MACD was developed by Gerald Appel as a way to keep track of a moving average crossover system.
When this signal line goes from negative to positive, a buy signal is generated.
When the signal line goes from positive to negative, a sell signal is generated.
MACD is best used in choppy (trendless) markets, and is subject to whipsaws (in and out rapidly with little or no profit).
MACD= shorter term moving average - longer term moving average

Conclusion
Technical traders take a short-term approach to analyzing the market Criticism of technical analysis stems from the efficient market
hypothesis, which states that the market price is always the correct one, making any historical analysis useless.
The price scale is on the right-hand side of the chart. It shows a stock's current price and compares it to past data points. It can be either linear or logarithmic.
One of the most important concepts in technical analysis is that of a trend, which is the general direction that a security is headed. There are three types of trends: uptrend, downtrends and sideways/horizontal trends.

Thank you for your time As noted, there are literally hundreds of indicators and
thousands of trading systems. A whole semester could easily be spent on just a handful
of these. To close, just note that there is nothing so crazy that
somebody doesn’t use it to trade. For example, many people use astrology, geometry
(Gann angles), neural networks, chaos theory, etc. There’s no doubt that each of these (and others) would
have made you lots of money at one time or another. The real question is can they do it consistently?
As the carneys used to say, “You pays your money, and you takes your chances.”
