TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
Mrs. P. Pirakatheeswari, Lecturer in Commerce, Sri Sarada College for Women (Autonomous), Salem -16.
INTRODUCTION
Technical Analysis as a study of the stock market considering factors related to the supply and demand of stocks. Technical Analysis doesn’t look at underlying earnings potential of a company while evaluating stocks (unlike fundamental Analysis). It uses charts and computer programs to study the stock’s trading volume and price movements in the hope of identifying a trend. In fact the decision made on the basis of technical analysis is done only after inferring a trend and judging the future movement of the stock on the basis of the trend.
In finance, technical analysis is a security analysis discipline for forecasting the direction of prices through the study of past market data, primarily price and volume.
Assumptions
Technical Analysis assumes that the market is efficient and the price has already taken into consideration the other factors related to the company and the industry.
It is because of this assumption that many think technical analysis is a tool, which is effective for short-term investing.
History
The principles of technical analysis derive from the observation of financial markets over hundreds of years. The oldest known hints of technical analysis appear in Dutch markets in the 17th century. In Asia, the oldest example of technical analysis is thought to be a method developed during early 18th century which evolved into the use, and is today a main charting tool.
Dow theory is based on the collected writings of modern technical analysis from the end of the 19th century. Many more technical tools and theories have been developed and enhanced in recent decades, with an increasing emphasis on computer-assisted techniques. Technical Analysis as a tool of investment for the average investor thrived in the late nineteenth century.
General description
Technical analysts seek to identify price patterns and trends in financial markets and attempt to exploit those patterns.
While technicians use various methods and tools, the study of price charts is primary. Technicians especially search for archetypal patterns, such as the well-known head and shoulders or double top reversal patterns, study indicators such as moving averages, and look for forms such as lines of support, resistance, channels, and more obscure formations such as flags, pennants, balance days and cup and handle patterns. Technical analysts also extensively use indicators, which are typically mathematical transformations of price or volume. These indicators are used to help determine whether an asset is trending, and if it is, its price direction. Technicians also look for relationships between price, volume and, in the case of futures, open interest.
Examples include the relative strength index, and MACD. Other avenues of study include correlations between changes in options (implied volatility) and put/call ratios with price. Other technicians include sentiment indicators, such as Put/Call ratios and Implied Volatility in their analysis.
Technicians seek to forecast price movements such that large gains from successful trades exceed more numerous but smaller losing trades, producing positive returns in the long run through proper risk control and money management. There are several schools of technical analysis. Adherents of different schools (for example, candlestick charting, Dow Theory, and Elliott wave theory) may ignore the other approaches, yet many traders combine elements from more than one school. Some technical analysts use subjective judgment to decide which pattern a particular instrument reflects at a given time, and what the interpretation of that pattern should be. Some technical analysts also employ a strictly mechanical or systematic approach to pattern identification and interpretation.
Technical analysis is frequently contrasted with fundamental analysis, the study of economic factors that influence prices in financial markets. Technical analysis holds that prices already reflect all such influences before investors are aware of them, hence the study of price action alone. Some traders use technical or fundamental analysis exclusively, while others use both types to make trading decisions. Users of technical analysis are most often called technicians or market technicians. Some prefer the term technical market analyst or simply market analyst. An older term, chartist, is sometimes used, but as the discipline has expanded and modernized the use of the term chartist has become less popular.
Characteristics
Technical analysis employs models and trading rules based on price and volume transformations, such as the relative strength index, moving averages, regressions, inter-market and intra-market price correlations, cycles or, classically, through recognition of chart patterns. Technical analysis stands in contrast to the fundamental analysis approach to security and stock analysis. Technical analysis “ignores” the actual nature of the company, market, currency or commodity and is based solely on “the charts,” that is to say price and volume information, whereas fundamental analysis does look at the actual facts of the company, market, currency or commodity. For example, any large brokerage, trading group, or financial institution will typically have both a technical analysis and fundamental analysis team. Technical analysis is widely used among traders and financial professionals, and is very often used by active day traders, market makers, and pit traders.
In the 1960s and 1970s it was widely dismissed by academics. In a recent review, Irwin and Park reported that 56 of 95 modern studies found it produces positive results, but noted that many of the positive results were rendered dubious by issues such as data snooping so that the evidence in support of technical analysis was inconclusive; it is still considered by many academics to be pseudoscience. Academics such as Eugene Fama say the evidence for technical analysis is sparse and is inconsistent with the weak form of the efficient market hypothesis. Users hold that even if technical analysis cannot predict the future, it helps to identify trading opportunities.
In the foreign exchange markets, its use may be more widespread than fundamental analysis. Recent research suggests that combining various trading signals into a Combined Signal Approach may be able to increase profitability and reduce dependence on any single rule.
Principles
Technicians say that a market’s price reflects all relevant information, so their analysis looks at the history of a security’s trading pattern rather than external drivers such as economic, fundamental and news events. Price action also tends to repeat itself because investors collectively tend toward patterned behavior – hence technicians’ focus on identifiable trends and conditions.
How is Technical Analysis done?
Technical Analysis is done by identifying the trend from past movements and then using it as a tool to predict future price movements of the stock. It can be done by using any of the following methods:
a) Moving Averages—This method is used to predict the trend and specify various support and resistance levels in the short and long term period. Most commonly used moving averages are 30 DMAs and 200 DMAs. Where DMA means Days Moving Average.
b) Charts & Patterns—Some analysts’ uses charts and patterns to decide on the trend and then judge the future movement. The tool used by such analyst is converting the chart in one of the many form of many shapes commonly formed by stocks.
Role of Volume: Volume plays a key role in deciding about the kind of future movement in stock. Whenever there is a sudden rise in the volume of the stock and if it is not followed by a price fall, it is a sign of consolidation and that the price may rise in near future. Generally if any stock breaks any trend it is accompanied by huge rise in volume.
In case of range bound trend the volume tends to die down to a great extent. Smart investors uses technical analysis to judge the rise in volume and take early positions in the stock during breakthroughs
Volume-based indicators
Accumulation/distribution index — based on the close within the day’s range
Money Flow — the amount of stock traded on days the price went up
On-balance volume — the momentum of buying and selling stocks
PAC charts — two-dimensional method for charting volume by price level
Prices move in trends
Technical analysts believe that prices trend directionally, i.e., up, down, or sideways (flat) or some combination. The basic definition of a price trend was originally put forward by Dow Theory.
Types of trends: Trends can be classified broadly in 3 types. They are:
a) Uptrend: – Generally a stock moves in any direction with phases of consolidation or moving against the trend for a short period. But still it creates a higher Highs and Lows in case of an uptrend. In short each short rally will create new High for the stock.
b) Downward: – In this case as against Uptrend the stock creates lower Highs and Lows. Furthermore in case of Downtrend the fall is much more steeper than the rise in case of Uptrend.
c) Range-bound: – In case of such a trend the price moves in a small range for the long period. There is no apparent direction as far as trend is concerned in this case.
Charting terms and indicators
Types of charts
OHLC “Bar Charts” — Open-High-Low-Close charts, also known as bar charts, plot the span between the high and low prices of a trading period as a vertical line segment at the trading time, and the open and close prices with horizontal tick marks on the range line, usually a tick to the left for the open price and a tick to the right for the closing price.
Candlestick chart — Of Japanese origin and similar to OHLC, candlesticks widen and fill the interval between the open and close prices to emphasize the open/close relationship. In the West, often black or red candle bodies represent a close lower than the open, while white, green or blue candles represent a close higher than the open price.
Line chart — Connects the closing price values with line segments.
Point and figure chart — a chart type employing numerical filters with only passing references to time, and which ignores time entirely in its construction.
Concepts
Resistance — a price level which acts as a ceiling above prices
Support — a price level which acts as a floor below prices
Breakout — the concept whereby prices forcefully penetrate an area of prior support or resistance, usually, but not always, accompanied by an increase in volume.
Trending — the phenomenon by which price movement tends to persist in one direction for an extended period of time
Average true range — averaged daily trading range, adjusted for price gaps
Chart pattern — distinctive pattern created by the movement of security prices on a chart
Dead cat bounce — the phenomenon whereby a spectacular decline in the price of a stock is immediately followed by a moderate and temporary rise before resuming its downward movement
Elliott wave principle and the golden ratio to calculate successive price movements and retracements
Fibonacci ratios — used as a guide to determine support and resistance
Momentum — the rate of price change
Point and figure analysis — A priced-based analytical approach employing numerical filters which may incorporate time references, though ignores time entirely in its construction.
Who uses Technical Analysis?
Investors for their short-term trading decisions use Technical Analysis. This short-term may be further divided in day trading, short-term investment and for hedging purposes. The role played by Technical Analysis in each case is as follows:
1) Day Traders: A day trader is one who takes and squares off his position both on the same day. Mostly a day trader counts on turnover rather than margin. A day trader will interpret the market movement.
2) Short term investors: These people form the biggest clientele base of both the brokers and the Technical Analyst.
3) Hedgers: These are generally big investors, who have lot of money at stake and hence they look to have some hedging of their risk. The strategy followed by this section of investors is that they compare the stock in consideration with the index and on the basis of the result of this comparison they take their position in the stock.
Conclusion
If we use only technical analysis in itself and do not consider other aspects it is very unlikely that we will have much success in the long run, particularly in case of short-term investments. But if we use Technical analysis along with fundamental analysis or discount the industry and company related news while considering the valuation, our chances of minimizing the risk brightens.
One thing that we must realize is that technical analysis provides us only with the trend and judge future on that basis, it can be far from actual in few cases. By no imagination and no analysis one could have guessed the same or rather have come closed to it. Therefore the best use of technical analysis is to realize the trend and levels at which it will break the trend so that one is prepared to take positions when such trend breaks. It is because of this disadvantage that Technical analysis more useful only for short-term investing…

How to use Technical Analysis to Make Money on Stock and Forex Trading
Step 1
Trading in the stock market can help you make money fast or lose your hard-earned money easily. With understanding of technical analysis, it will allow you to make better decision on entering or exiting a position.
Step 2
Understand what all indicators mean
I think these indicators are more important:
-Simple Moving average (20 SMA, 50 SMA)
-MACD
-RSI
-Volume
Technical Indicators and Overlays:
http://stockcharts.com/school/doku.php?id=chart_school:technical_indicators
Technical analysis is the soul of day trading. Please take time to get familiar with all the tools you can use. Technical traders only trade when they see a particular indicator or pattern.
Step 3
Candlestick chart is more understandable
In candlestick chart, we can easily see and compare the relationship between the open and close, the high and low of a stock price movement.
If it open low and goes lower but eventually close back up to form a long shadow line on bottom, that means the bottom has been tested and the chance is high that it will go up higher.
If it open high and goes higher but eventually close below open price to form a long shadow line on top, that means the top has been tested and the chance is high that it become the pivot point to go down.

Step 4
Support and Resistance
If the price breaks the resistance line, it will go up higher. If it breaks the support line, it will go further downward.
Step 5
Trading rules
Once you understand how to read technical analysis chart, you should come up with your own trading strategy. This is a must in order for you to survive in this brutal market. You must have systemic rules, rules for your trading game that you must follow. These rules tell you the best time to enter or exit a position from technical analysis chart.

How to make money in the stock market by recognizing trends with UCTrend technical analysis?
What is Technical Analysis?
Technical analysis predicts probable future price trends through the use of historical price charts. The chart captures price movements of the securities, their trading volume and open interest (where applicable).
Technical analysts (technicians) believe in 3 major principles:
1) Market action discounts everything.
2) Price move in trend.
3) History repeats itself.
The Underlying Assumptions of Technical Analysis
Underlying all of technical analysis are the following assumptions:
Values and prices are determined by supply and demand.
Supply and demand are driven by both rational and irrational behavior.
Security prices move in trends that persist for long periods.
The shift in supply and demand can be observed in market price behavior.
Technical Analysis looks for signs that the price has moved, and bases its strategy on the premise that price changes will occur over a long period. When we recognize a price movement opposite to its long period supposed movement we can analyze where is it moving next.
1. Advantages to Technical Analysis
Technical analysis offers the following:
It is quick and easy.
It does not involve accounting data and analytical adjustment for differences in accounting methods. Unaffected by firms that try to ‘cook the books’ in their accounting reports. Works only based on pure financial and pricing data.
It incorporates psychological as well as economic reasons behind price changes.
It tells when to buy and sell.
Major Trading Rules and Indicators
Technical trading rules fall into two broad classes:
General market movement indicators.
Individual stock selection indicators (graphs and moving averages).
2. Indicators of Market Direction
The following is taken from the CFA institute definitions:
Breadth of Market:
Compare the advance-decline line with the market index. The advance-decline line is a running total of the daily advances less the declines on the NYSE. If the advance-decline line and the index move together, the movement is broadly based across the market. A divergence between the trend in the index and the advance-decline line would signal that the market has hit a peak or through.
Short Interest Ratio:
Short interest is the cumulative number of shares that have been sold short and not covered by a subsequent purchase. The short interest ratio (SIR) is used to measure the extent of short interest:
SIR= Outstanding short interest/ Average daily volume on exchange.
The SIR is calculated by the NYSE and NASD.
If the SIR is high (6 or above) there is potential demand, a bullish sign.
If the SIR is low (4 or below), there is potential for short selling, a bearish sign.
Stocks above their 200-Day Moving:
The market is believed to be overbought (a bearish indicator), when over 80% of the stocks are selling above their 200-day averages. Similarly, the market is considered to be oversold (a bullish indicator), if less than 20% of the stocks are selling above their 200-day-moving averages.
Block Uptick-Downtick Ratio:
Upticks refer to stock selling at a price above its most recent trade. When blocks of stocks are trading at an uptick price, the market is considered to be a buyer’s market. Blocks trading on downticks (prices below the previous price), are an indication of a seller’s market.
Upstick- downstick ratio = number of block uptick transactions /number of block downtick transactions
This indicator is a measure of institutional investor sentiment.
If the ratio is close to 0.7, it is bullish; if the ratio is close to 1.1 it is bearish.
Reading the Market
The following is taken from the CFA institute definitions:
1. Stock Price and Volume Techniques
Dow Theory:
The Dow Theory states that stock prices move in trends. There are three types of trends: major trends, intermediate trends, and short-run movements. Technical analysts look for reversals and recoveries in major market trends.
Importance of Volume:
Price alone isn’t enough. Technical analysts attempt to gauge market sentiment, as well as direction, to determine changes in supply and demand. Thus, they look at the volume that accompanies price movements. Price changes on low volume tell us little. Price changes on high volume tell us whether suppliers or demanders are driving the change.
Upside-downside volume ratio = volume of stocks that increased/ volume of stocks that declined
If the upside-downside (U-D) ratio is 1.5 or more, it indicates that the market is overbought. This is a bearish signal.
If the U-D ratio is 0.75 or lower, it reflects that the market is oversold. This is a bullish signal.
Support and Resistance Levels:
Most stock prices remain relatively stable and fluctuate up and down from their true value. The lower limit to these fluctuations is called a support level, the price where a stock appears cheap and attracts buyers. The upper limit is called a resistance level, the price where a stock appears expensive and initiates selling.
Moving Averages Lines:
Technical analysts believe stock prices move in trends. However, random fluctuations in prices mask these trends. By using moving averages (10 to 200 days), technical analysts can eliminate the minor blips in graphs but retain the overall long-run trend in prices.
Relative Strength:
When prices of an individual stock or industry change, it is difficult to tell if the change is stock specific or caused by market movements. If the stock price and the market index value are changing at the same rate, the ratio created by dividing one by the other will remain constant. This ratio is called the relative strength ratio.
Relative strength = stock price/ market index value
If the ratio increases over time, the stock is outperforming the market, a positive trend.
If the ratio declines over time, the stock is underperforming the market, a negative trend.
Graphs:
Technical analysts rely heavily on charts and graphs in analysis of pricing and trends.
Since history repeats itself, by looking at past trends, we will be able to identify the beginning of new trends. On www.uctrend.com you can follow a stock’s graph in the past five years, and see the closing price every day and the indications given to buy or sell.
2. Rules to follow when using UCTrend to forecast trends
Be disciplined.
Lower trade size when results are poor.
Diversify your portfolio and get rid of your losing stocks.
Stick to your investment policy.
When you gained in a cycle liquidate your stock and cash on your profits.
3. Top investment success factors for UCTrend Technologies
Education: Plan an investment strategy and know what kind of sectors, or industries you want to invest in. When you have a clear segment in mind, play it on paper first. Follow UCTrend indications for the security in the past and for a decided time period. When you are ready to invest, don’t jump into the water. Take small steps first by taking small positions on the indications received.
Luck: UCTrend is based on an advanced mathematical algorithm. Most movements in the market can be recognized by the general investors behavior towards a stock, which influences the quantity demanded and the supply-demand equilibrium and hence the price. When there is a large volume of buyers, the demand for the stock will increase its future price and the rise in price will bring more buyers that will further increase the stock’s price. However, even when the algorithm calculates these relationships, a single unanticipated event, such as a bankruptcy, can influence the demand for the stock. Therefore the indications don’t work in 100% of the cases. If you see bad luck coming to your investments don’t panic! You should have a portfolio with several positions. It’s a numbers game, follow the indications on your positions and even if you have one position with bad luck, the other positions’ good indications will balance it out. You can create a stop-loss order at 5% to make sure that this one bad position won’t continue snowballing down. Also, you can wait with the bad position until you close the cycle and get the contrary indication. Even if it doesn’t go ‘as planned’ in the beginning, if you wait enough for the other indications and act upon the indications then, you will see a regression back to the mean. The few days that were affected from an irregular event may be balanced out by the rule of large numbers. The rule says that the longer the statistical sample is, the less errors and irregular bad luck events can occur.
Smart Investing: Never invest based on your feelings! Don’t hold a losing position too long just because you don’t want to sell it and lose money. Use rationale. Sometimes, it is better to sell in a small loss in order to get out of a position and buy another position that can realize better gains. Don’t invest out of fear and follow the crowd in fast selling bear markets or follow the greed and buy in a bull market. UCTrend indications will actually tell you when this selling frenzy is not based on the intrinsic value[1] of the stock. The smart thing is to buy when everyone is afraid and sell when everyone is confident. If you detect a trend for price movement, you are in a clear advantage.
Choosing your suitable investment strategy
1. Which Stocks to Pick
Choose the information that will be most important in your stock selection. How many of each stock you should purchase (Portfolio Allocation), how and through whom you will purchase the stock.
Some of the more used methods people employ for investing in their stocks are:
The recommendation strategy: Advice or information from people that have better insight into the stock than you.
The research strategy: Reading company’s annual reports (Fundamental Analysis) and looking at technical analysis (Such as UCTrend). You can look at a particular stock, research the indication that the index it is listed on received, the indications its industry peers received, and the indication the stock itself has received past and present.
Buy and hold: Buying for long term growth and reinvesting the dividends received in subsequent purchases of the stock.
2. Determine your Risk-Return Preference
It is important to determine the level of risk you are willing to take. The general equation is simply the higher the risk taken, the higher the potential return is.
Determine your investment goal, whether it is a large scale purchase like a new car or a house, or a college fund for your kids. Depending on your goals and your time period for them you can decide on your risk assessment. For example, if you have many years until retirement you can be less cautious than if you plan to retire next year. When you have decided what amount of risk you are willing to take you can decide on the aggressiveness of your investment. The least risky investment are income stocks that pay constant dividends, riskier than that are growth stocks that also have the potential for high returns. The most risky are speculative penny stocks, which are small cap stocks that are generally unknown with a very low trading volume and hence very speculative. They entail the highest return potential along with the biggest market risk. Decide which stock type you want to invest in and follow UCTrend indications on these stock types.
3. Watch List
After you decided on a strategy to follow and stock types to invest in, familiarize yourself with the stock types you are interested in. In the Watch List tab on the UCTrend website, you have the ability to select a list of securities for special surveillance. You can monitor the list for indications. You can select a list with special characteristics, such as company type or geographic location.
Stocks
1. Sectors, Markets and Individual Stocks Indications
UCTrend provides a specific indication possibility. This is an option to receive a specific indication for a security of your choice. Direct your indication search and receive a dynamic graph, the closing price, and the percent return of the last cycle the security closed. (Please see the ‘Technical Calculator’ dropdown under ‘About UCTrend’ for the definition of a complete cycle.)
You also have the ability to sort by indices or sectors. You can view a report for a specific index and see the indications for the index members and for the index itself. Also, you can see a sector report and view the indications for the stocks that compose the specific sector.
2. Complete Cycle Opportunities for Making Money When the Market is Up or Down
The Complete Cycle:
Cycle Up: The time period between Buy to Sell Indications.
Cycle Down: The time period between Sell to Buy Indications.
We use a special model of closing a cycle. We recognize where the low pricing point for a stock is and indicate to buy it. Once it starts rising, more people will buy it and by the growing demand it will continue growing until it will reach the top and then fall again. This is considered a regular business cycle. We use a very advanced mathematical algorithm that manages to identify these high and low points and enable you to do just that, buy low and sell high. What makes the UCTrend model so special is because of the cycles’ method, you may actually make money in both a rising market and a falling market. When the market is falling, a sell indication is received. You can short the stock, and then repurchase it. When a buy indication is received and the cycle down is closed, a profit will be realized.
Following the Indication
1. Tracking Historical Performance
On the indication graph you can see the indications that were given for a specific security and their results for a time range of up to five years. You can also see the performance for all the stocks that closed a cycle (from buy to sell or from sell to buy) in the past month. Lastly, you can see UCTrend’s performance compared to the benchmark of the Dow Jones and the S&P 500 and see how UCTrend managed to consistently outperform these major indices.
2. Setting Alerts
Once an investment strategy is decided, you can start getting indication alerts for the securities of your choosing in a form of electronic messages. Go to ‘Set Indication Alert’ under the ‘My UCtrend’ tab and chose which stocks you want to receive an email alert for.
