Technical Analysis is another value-added service which will help you in making the

best investment decisions. It is a method of evaluating securities by analyzing trading

statistics generated by market activity, such as past prices and volume.

In Technical Analysis, it is not about the security's intrinsic value of a company or a

commodity, but instead charts and other tools are used to identify patterns that can

suggest future trading activity.

To go to the Technical Analysis tool, point to Stocks menu and then select

Technical Analysis.

Drawing & Annotation Tools

On the left panel of the Technical Analysis window is the Drawing & Annotation

Tools. It consists of Fibonacci style chart drawing tools such as Fibonacci

Retracements, Fibonacci Fans, Fibonacci Time Zones and also regular drawing tools

such as Trend and Horizontal Lines, Ellipses, Text Notes, etc. Just click any of these

tools and then drag it on the chart to view the results.

Fibonacci

Fibonacci ratios are used in technical analysis to predict retracement areas during

pullbacks, as well as targets, called extensions, for projected price moves.

Figure 46. Technical Analysis: Drawing & Annotation Tools

Fibonacci Retracements

Horizontal lines that divide the vertical distance by the key Fibonacci ratios of 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%

and 100% to indicate areas of support or resistance at the key Fibonacci levels before it continues in

the original direction. The Fibonacci retracement is the potential retracement of a financial asset's

original move in price.

Fibonacci Time Zones

A series of vertical lines that correspond to the sequence of numbers known as Fibonacci numbers.

Fibonacci numbers are a sequence of numbers where each successive number is the sum of the two

previous numbers.

Figure 48. Drawing & Annotation Tools: Fibonacci Time Zones

Linear Regression Line

A Linear Regression Line is a straight line that best fits the prices between a starting price point and an

ending price point. The Linear Regression Line is mainly used to determine trend direction.

Figure 49. Drawing & Annotation Tools: Linear Regression Line



Fibonacci Fans

Fan lines that divide the vertical distance by the key Fibonacci ratios of 23.6%, 38.2%, 61.8% and 100%.

Likewise, in a downtrend, if price rises to a Fibonacci Fan trendline, then that trendline is expected to

act as resistance; if that price is pierced, then the next Fibonacci Fan trendline higher is expected to

act as resistance.

Indicators

These indicators will provide detailed analysis technically where it will involve

mathematical calculation and scientific formula calculation. Currently there are

approximately more than 30 indicator options available as listed in the next table.

Figure 52. Stocks: Technical Indicators

No Indicators Name Description

1. Bolinger Band Consists of a pair of values put as an envelope around a data

field. To measure the values you should take the changing

average of the data for a definite period and subtract or add

the definite number of standard deflections for the same period

from the moving average.

2. Exponential Moving

Average (EMAs) 1

A type of moving average that is similar to a simple moving

average, except that more weight is given to the latest data. This

type of moving average reacts faster to recent price changes

than a simple moving average. That is why it is also known as

Exponentially weighted moving average. In this case,the 12-

day EMAs.


Average (EMAs) 2

Similar to Exponential Moving Average 1 except it is the 26-day

EMAs.


Average (EMAs) 3

Similar to Exponential Moving Average 1.


Average (EMAs) 4

Similar to Exponential Moving Average 1.


Average Envelope

The Moving Average Envelopes indicator creates upper and

lower channel lines plotted an equidistant % (number of pips)

above and below the moving average. It also serves as an




indicator of overbought or oversold conditions, visual

representations of price trend, and an indicator of price

breakouts.

7. Ichimoku Kinko Hyo The word Ichimoku can be translated to mean a glance or

one look. Kinko translates into equilibrium: or balance, and

Hyo is the Japanese word for chart. Thus, Ichimoku Kinko Hyo

simply means a glance at an equilibrium chart. Ichimoku charts

attempt to identify the probably direction of price and help the

trader to determine the most suitable time to enter and/or exit

the market. This indicator was developed so that a trader can

gauge an asset's trend, momentum and support and resistance

points without the need for any other technical indicator.

8. Parabolic A technical analysis strategy that uses trailing stops and a reverse

method called stop-and-reversal SAR to determine good exit

and entry points.

9. Price Channel The price action contained between two parallel lines in a trend.

In a price channel, the lower line is the trendline drawn on pivot

lows, and the upper line is the channel line drawn on pivot highs.

The two lines of channel represent support and resistance.

10. Simple Moving Average 1 A simple, or arithmetic, moving average that is calculated by

adding the closing price for a number of time periods and then

dividing this total by the same number of time periods. In other

words, this is the average stock price over a certain period of

time.


adding the closing price of the security for a number of time

periods and then dividing this total by the number of time

periods. In other words, this is the average stock price over a

certain period of time.











14. Accumulation/Distribution Developed by Marc Chaikin, the Accumulation/Distribution

indicator attempts to assess the cumulative flow of money into

and out of a trading instrument. The basic premise has always

been that volume (or money flow) may be a leading indicator to

price action.

15. Average Directional Index

(ADX)

A momentum indicator developed by J. Welles Wilder. The ADX is

constructed from two other Wilders indicators: the Positive

Directional indicator (+DI) and the Negative Directional Indicator




(-DI). The (+DI) and (-DI) indicators are commonly referred to as

the Directional Movement Index. Combining the +/-DI and

applying a Wilders() smoothing filter results in the final ADX value

16. Average True Range A measure of a trading instruments volatility. It measures the

degree of price movement, not the direction or duration of the

price movement. The True Range is first calculated using the

greatest of the following: Difference between the current high

and the current low; Difference between the previous closing

price and the current high; Difference between the previous

closing price and the current low.

17. Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) The CMF is based on the assumption that the nearer the close

price is to the high price of the daily range, the more

accumulation has taken place. Alternatively, the nearer the

close price is to the low price of the daily range, the more

distribution has taken place.

18. Commodity Channel Index

(CCI)

Developed by Donald Lambert, the Commodity Channel Index

(CCI) measures the variation of a securitys price from its

statistical mean. High values show that prices are unusually high

compared to average prices whereas low values indicate that

prices are unusually low. Contrary to its name, the CCI can be

used effectively on any type of trading instrument, not just

commodities.

19. Elliot Wave Oscillator Theory named after Ralph Nelson Elliot, who concluded that the

movement of the stock market could be predicted by observing

and identifying a repetitive pattern of waves. Sometimes it is also

known as the Elliot Wave Theory.

20. Force Index This index created by Alexander Elder calculates the Bulls Power

at every rise and fall. The Force Index links the main parts of

market data: price trend and decreases, the volumes of

transactions.

21. Guppy Multiple Moving

Average

An indicator used in technical analysis to identify changing

trends. The technique consists of combining two groups of

moving averages with differing time periods.

22. Momentum The momentum indicator is one of the simplest equations

available in modern technical analysis. Momentum is a measure

of price change velocity calculated as the difference between

the current bars price and the price of a selected number of

previous bars. Basically, it represents the rate of change of the

tradings instruments price over those specified time periods.

23. Money Flow Index The Money Flow Index (MFI) is similar to the Relative Strength

Index (RSI) in calculation and interpretation except that volume is

used to weigh the average price values before summing the

positive and negative money flows.

24. Moving Average

Convergence/Divergence

The primary method of interpreting the MACD is with moving

average crossovers. When the shorter-term 12-period exponential

moving average (EMA) crosses over the longer-term 26-period




EMA a buy signal is generated; this is seen on the chart below

with the Green Arrow(s) and Vice Versa for the Sell Signal as

shown on the chart with Red Arrow(s).

25. On Balance Volume A method used in technical analysis to detect momentum, the

calculation of which relates volume to price change. OBV

provides a running total of volume and shows whether this

volume is flowing in or out of a given security.

26. Price Volume Trend A cumulative total of volume adjusted to the relative changes in

the instruments prices. It is similar in nature to the On Balance

Volume (OBV) indicator. However, unlike the OBV the PVT adds

or substracts only a portion of volume from the cumulative total in

relation to the percentage of change in prices whereas the OBV

adds all volume when prices close higher and substracts all

volume when prices close lower.

27. Rate of Change (ROC) The Rate of Change (ROC) indicator calculates how prices have

changed within a specified number of time periods by

calculating the difference between current bars price and the

price of a selected number of previous bar. The difference is

calculated in Points or as a Percentage.

28. Relative Strength Index

(RSI)

The RSI compares a trading instruments magnitude of recent

gains against its magnitude of recent losses and quantifies this

information into a value that ranges between 0 and 100.

29. Smoothed Relative

Strength Index

Smoothed Relative Strength Index is the same as Relative

Strength Index indicator just that it will smooth the line in a given

period of time.

30. Stochastic The Stochastic Oscillator is a momentum indicator designed to

show the relation of the current close price relative to the

high/low range over a given number of periods using a scale of

0-100.

31. Volume The number of shares or contracts traded in a security or an

entire market during a given period of time. It is simply the

amount of shares that trades hands from sellers to buyers as a

measure of activity. If a buyer of a stock purchases 100 shares

from a seller, then the volume for that period increases by 100

shares based on that transaction.

32. William%Range A momentum oscillator used to measure overbought and

oversold levels. Its very similar to the Stochastic Oscillator except

that the %R is plotted upside-down on a negative scale from 0 to

-100 and has no internal smoothing

33. Setting Parameter settings for technical indicators.



Trading System Indicators (Signal)

These indicators will provide detailed analysis graphically in signal format for buying or

selling in each index.

For example, selected signals are Moving Average Convergence/Divergence

(MACD) Trading System, Relative Strength Index (RSI) Trading System and

Stochastic Trading System.

Figure 53. Signals selection

The signals will be displayed in different numbering. Green arrow shows Buy signal

while Red arrow shows Sell signal.

Figure 54. Buy and Sell Signal Indicators

Indicates Buy Based on MACD Trading System

Indicates Sell Based on RSI Trading System



There are approximately 6 indicator options available as listed in the table below.


1. Average Directional Index

(ADX) Trading System A Buy signal is generated when the PlusDI crosses above the
