Technical Analysis
The use of technical indicators
Many investors study the movement of and the statistical properties of market prices and volumes and base their decisions upon such technical analysis.
A Typical Technical Analysis Investment System
- Enter a long order when the closing price of the stock is greater than the 30-day simple moving average of the closing price.
- Close a long order when the closing price of the stock falls below the 10-day weighted moving average of the low price.
The construction of an successful investment system is often time-consuming and must be performed periodically as market conditions change. Furthermore, a system which works well for one stock may not be profitable for another stock.
