Technical Analysis

Summary

Technical analysis is a trading methodology that evaluates securities by analyzing statistics generated by market activity, such as past prices and volume.

Detailed Description

Technical analysis focuses on the price movements and trading volume of a security, employing various tools and indicators to predict future market behavior. It aims to identify patterns and trends that can inform trading decisions, relying heavily on charts and historical data. Unlike fundamental analysis, which investigates a company's financial health, technical analysis emphasizes price action and the psychology behind market movements.
