Technical AnalysisA technical analyst attempts to predict the supply and
demand for a stock by observing the past series of stock prices & volumes
Financial statements and market conditions are of secondary importance to the technical analyst
Does not attempt to measure a security's intrinsic value, but instead use charts & other tools to identify patterns that can suggest future activity
Is the process of identifying trend reversal at an early stage to formulate the buying & selling strategy, to gain from such a change
The basic foundations or premises of technical analysis are that a stock's current price discounts all information available in the market, that price movements are not random, and that patterns in price movements, in very many cases, tend to repeat themselves or trend in some direction.

Price as an Element of Technical Analysis
Price is an interaction or point where demand & supply meet
Price refers to any combination of the Open, High, Low & Close for a given Security/Index over a specific timeframe
Price of a security depends on the expectations of the buyer & the seller
If the investor expects the price to rise, he will buy the security & if he expects it to fall, he will sell it
