| Technical Analysis |
| The study of movements of price section
of a stock or index vis a vis the volume or open interest. The
prices are plotted on a graph which a chartist reads to predict
the next section. |
|
Time Filter |
|
The technique requires that in order for a valid trendline to be penetrated, it
must be broken by a predetermined number of days, e.g., the two-day rule.
|
|
Top Reversal Day |
|
A day, on which a new high in an
uptrend is set, followed by a lower close on the same
day.
|
|
Trading Range
|
|
|
That third of the time, by a conservative estimate, in
which prices move in a flat, horizontal pattern : This
type of sideways action reflects a period of
equilibrium in the price level where the forces of
supply and demand are in a state of relative balance.
|
|
Trend
|
The stock market generally moves in a trend,
which can be either going up or going down or
remaining sideways.Trends are of generally three
types.
| Upward Trend |
| If the market makes a high and then comes down
and after that cuts the previous high makes a
new high, it means that the market is in an uptrend
and it is making a higher bottom higher top.
|
| Downward Trend |
| If the market is falling and
making a lower bottom lower top it is said to
be a downtrend.
|
| Sideways Trend |
| If the market is just drifting
and has no clear move it is laid to be a sidewaystrend.
|
|
|
Trendline
|
|
A line drawn on a bar chart to
represent a trend. In a downtrend, it is drawn down as
a solid line, along successive rally peaks. In an
uptrend, it is a straight line drawn along successive
reaction lows.
|
|
Triangles
|
| Usually continuation patterns, but
sometimes acts as reversal patterns. Although
triangles are usually considered intermediate
patterns, they may occasionally appear on long
term charts and take on major trend
significance. The minimum requirement for a
triangle is four reversal points. |
 |
|
|
Triple Top or Bottom
|
|
The three peaks or troughs in the triple top or bottom
are at about the same level. The volume tends to
decline with each successive peak at the top and
should increase at the bottom point. The triple top is
not complete until support levels along the
intervening lows have been broken. Conversely, prices
must close through the two intervening peaks at the
bottom to complete a triple bottom.
