Contenu du cours
Technical analysis examines the practical value of two types of analysis: charting, which identifies geometric patterns in the history of prices, and technical indicators approach, which mechanically applies mathematical trading rules constructed from past and present prices (and volumes). Such approaches ignore fundamental information about the price; however, they have been shown to result in trading profitability and are widely used by banks, fund managers and hedge funds. This course is aimed at providing students with an understanding of how technical analysis is used to uncover trends and predict turning points in financial markets.
