  • Point and Figure Charts
    Point and Figure Charts Point-and-figure (P&F) chart is a special type of graphical analysis, which lays stress to prediction of medium-term and long-term trends. Conclusion Let’s single out advantages and disadvantages of Point and Figure charts. Point and Figure Advantages 1. P&F charts send only clear buy or sell signals without any dual nature. 2. P&F charts take into account only “important” price changes and filter out market noise. This being said, the “importance” of changes is set by a trader. 3. P&F charts are not affected by time effect, which sometimes introduces additional element of uncertainty on general charts. 4. P&F charts allow to identify support and resistance levels, and also trend lines. 5. P&F charts are very intelligible. Point and Figure Disadvantages 1. P&F charts send clear signals only for medium-term and long-term periods and are almost not intended for short-term trade. Building Point and Figure Charts The majority of the most popular charts, used for technical analysis, are built in accordance with opening price, closing price, maximum or minimum for a definite period. Only closing price for a period is used for building Point and Figure charts. Point and Figure charts consist of X and O columns, which reflect the filtered price changes. Increase in prices is shown by “X” boxes, and drop in prices is shown by “O” boxes. New boxes are created only in case of price change by the size of a box or more in one of directions.

  • Nikkei 225 Kagi Chart with MACD Applied (Charts: Tradingview)
    Kagi What is it? • Created in Japan, • Been around since 1870’s. • Used to give a much more transparent picture of where the price of an individual asset was headed independent of time. • Ignores time and focus solely on price changes that meet a minimum requirement. • Great for taking the ‘noise’ out of the charts; another great ‘psychological’ helping chart! • Instead of using 'X's and O's like point and figure charts, the Kagi chart simply uses lines. These lines are known as the Yin and Yang lines. • The other fundamental concept of these charts, is that of the reversal in price. The lines change direction once the price moves a set amount. 1 Below you can see a typical example based on the S&P500 stock index (Charts: TradingView). In this example the thicker black line signifies up bullish periods (Yang line) and the thinner red line signifies bearish periods (Yin Line): 2 Also take a look at the same period on the Kagi S&P 500 chart versus the traditional candlestick chart S&P 500 chart. See how much less noise there is on the Kagi chart (Charts: TradingView): 3 Basics: • It is the study of pure price movement i.e. it doesn’t take into consideration ‘time’ when constructing its charts. • Uses simple lines known as ‘Yin’ and ‘Yang’ to measure price. • The lines change direction once the price moves a set amount. • Kagi charting is all about the price reversal. • Normally: Black (thicker) lines indicate bullish periods (Yang Line), Red (thin) lines signify bearish periods (Yin Line) • In my examples: Going Black to Red = Sell, Going Red to Black = Buy 4 Construction: • Step 1 is to calculate the reversal amount.

  • Active Portfolio Management
    Active Portfolio Management Charting • Technical analysts are sometimes called chartists because they study records or charts of past stock-prices and trading volume, hoping to find patterns they can exploit to make a profit. • We examine next several specific charting strategies. Christos A. Ioannou 2/27 The Dow Theory • The Dow Theory, named after its creator Charles Dow (who established The Wall Street Journal), is the grandfather of most technical analysis. • The aim of the Dow theory is to identify long-term trends in stock market prices. • The two indicators used are the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) and the Dow Jones Transportation Average (DJTA). The DJIA is the key indicator of underlying trends, while the DJTA usually serves as a check to confirm or reject that signal. Christos A. Ioannou 3/27 The Dow Theory (Cont.) The Dow theory posits three forces simultaneously affecting stock prices: 1 The primary trend is the long-term movement of prices, lasting from several months to several years. 2 Secondary or intermediate trends are caused by short-term deviations of prices from the underlying trend line. These deviations are eliminated via corrections when prices revert back to trend values. 3 Tertiary or minor trends are daily fluctuations of little importance. Christos A.

  • Top 7 Market Breadth Indicators for Day Traders
    Top 7 Market Breadth Indicators for Day Traders Day trading at the end of the day comes down to timing. Funny how the smaller the time frame you trade, the more accuracy is required of you the trader. I cannot tell you how many times I opened a position 5 minutes too soon or closed a minute early. We are literally talking about seconds here and the difference between a profitable or losing trade. To help improve timing, day traders will heavily rely on time and sales and level 2. However, understanding how the broad market is moving can help you stay on the right side of the market. For example, if you were long a stock in the Nikkei the night of the 2016 presidential election results came in with Trump as the winner, you were just blindsided. It wasn’t that you picked the wrong stock or anything. The Nikkei shot lower across the board due to the election results, only to rally by the close. Well, in this article we will cover these market breadth indicators and how you can use them to improve the accuracy of your trading. Top 7 Market Breadth Indicators for Day Traders It’s not an official TradingSim post if we do not provide a top 10 list. #1 – TICK Index The TICK Index is a measurement of the short-term bias of the overall market and is one of the most important tools for day trading. It measures the difference between the number of stocks on the NYSE that have registered an uptick versus the number of stocks that have registered a downtick.

Some aspects of technical analysis began to appear in Amsterdam-based merchant Joseph de la Vega's accounts of the Dutch financial markets in the 17th century. In Asia, technical analysis is said to be a method developed by Homma Munehisa during the early 18th century which evolved into the use of candlestick techniques, and is today a technical analysis charting tool. In the 1920s and 1930s, Richard W. Schabacker published several books which continued the work of Charles Dow and William Peter Hamilton in their books Stock Market Theory and Practice and Technical Market Analysis. In 1948, Robert D. Edwards and John Magee published Technical Analysis of Stock Trends which is widely considered to be one of the seminal works of the discipline. It is exclusively concerned with trend analysis and chart patterns and remains in use to the present.

  • Bullish Percent Index – See How to Time Bull and Bear Markets
    Bullish percent index – See How to Time Bull and Bear Markets We can all agree that the bullish percent index (BPI) is a market breadth indicator that we can use to gauge market health. But is the indicator something you should use when trading? More importantly, if you do use the indicator when trading, when and how should you place your orders. Wellin this post, we will dissect how the BPI can be used to navigate the waters and some specific techniques you can use to increase your odds. Why Should You Care About the BPI? The BPI indicator is calculated by taking the total number of issues in an index or industry that are generating point and figure buy signals and dividing it by the total number of stocks in that group. The basic rule for using the bullish percent index is when the BPI is above 70%, the market is overbought, and conversely, when the indicator is below 30%, the market is oversold. The most popular BPI is the NYSE Bullish Percent Index, which is the tool of choice for famed point and figure analyst, Thomas Dorsey. The bullish percent index is generally plotted on with a two-point box size. Later in this article, we will cover how to confirm bull and bear markets. Bullish percent index or BPI for short might seem as just another fancy name for a market breadth indicator. Between the BPI and many other similar indicators, one might wonder the need to use this indicator. Well, the BPI is an indicator for the stock markets which is quite unique.

  • Investing with Volume Analysis
    Praise for Investing with Volume Analysis “Investing with Volume Analysis is a compelling read on the critical role that changing volume patterns play on predicting stock price movement. As buyers and sellers vie for dominance over price, volume analysis is a divining rod of profitable insight, helping to focus the serious investor on where profit can be realized and risk avoided.” —Walter A. Row, III, CFA, Vice President, Portfolio Manager, Eaton Vance Management “In Investing with Volume Analysis, Buff builds a strong case for giving more attention to volume. This book gives a broad overview of volume diagnostic measures and includes several references to academic studies underpinning the importance of volume analysis. Maybe most importantly, it gives insight into the Volume Price Confirmation Indicator (VPCI), an indicator Buff developed to more accurately gauge investor participation when moving averages reveal price trends. The reader will find out how to calculate the VPCI and how to use it to evaluate the health of existing trends.” —Dr. John Zietlow, D.B.A., CTP, Professor of Finance, Malone University (Canton, OH) “In Investing with Volume Analysis, the reader … should be prepared to discover a trove of new ground-breaking innovations and ideas for revolutionizing volume analysis. Whether it is his new Capital Weighted Volume, Trend Trust Indicator, or Anti-Volume Stop Loss method, Buff offers the reader new ideas and tools unavailable anywhere else.” —From the Foreword by Jerry E. Blythe, Market Analyst, President of Winthrop Associates, and Founder of Blythe Investment Counsel “Over the years, with all the advancements in computing power and analysis tools, one of the most important tools of analysis, volume, has been sadly neglected.
