  • Accumulation/Distribution Line -- Chart School
    Accumulation/Distribution Line -- Chart School Chart School Accumulation/Distribution Line Introduction - Volume and the Flow of Money There are many indicators available to measure volume and the flow of money for a particular stock, index or security. One of the most popular volume indicators over the years has been the Accumulation/Distribution Line. The basic premise behind volume indicators, including the Accumulation/Distribution Line, is that volume precedes price. Volume reflects the amount of shares traded in a particular stock and is a direct reflection of the money flowing into and out of a stock. Many times before a stock advances, there will be period of increased volume just prior to the move. Most volume or money flow indicators are designed to identify early increases in positive or negative volume flow to gain an edge before the price moves. (Note: the terms "money flow" and "volume flow" are essentially interchangeable.) Methodology (Click here to see a live example of the Acc/Dist Line) The Accumulation/Distribution Line was developed by Marc Chaikin to assess the cumulative flow of money into and out of a security. In order to fully appreciate the methodology behind the Accumulation/Distribution Line, it may be helpful to examine one of the earliest volume indicators and see how it compares. In 1963, Joe Granville developed On Balance Volume (OBV), which was one of the earliest and most popular indicators to measure positive and negative volume flow. OBV is a relatively simple indicator that adds the corresponding period's volume when the close is up and subtracts it when the close is down.

    1 Account Value: The account value is how much one’s account is worth. ADP Non Farm Employment Change: This U.S. report is a measure of non-farm private employment. It was developed in order to help meet the need for timely and accurate estimates of short-term movements in the labor market. Analyst: When analyzing the market, analysts can generally be divided into two camps – fundamentals and technicals. Fundamental analysts are those who mainly look at the fundamental aspects of an economy in forming their opinions. They stay on top of the markets by reading and analyzing what the current economic data say about current market conditions, what is fundamentally driving the market, and where it’s headed. Technical analysts are those who primarily rely on chart indicators and patterns to help predict where price will move next. Some tools that technical analysts use are Fibonacci retracement, candlesticks and momentum indicators. Ascending Trend Channel: An ascending trend channel is a basic chart pattern used in technical analysis. Ascending trend channels are a useful tool due to their ability to predict overall changes in trend. As long as prices remain within the ascending trend channel, the upward trend in price can be expected to continue. As soon as prices exceed either trendline forming the channel, however, a strong signal either to buy or to sell is generated. A break through the upper trendline generates a strong buy signal, while a break through the lower trendline generates a strong sell signal. Ascending Trend Line: A bullish pattern created by connecting two or more lows, with each successive low higher than the previous low.

    Essential Technical 5Indicators to Master Mastering the basics of technical indicators Technical indicators can appear arcane, opaque and difficult to understand. But it needn’t be this way and once mastered they are indispensable tools for traders. Whilst the construction of indicators and oscillators is often complex, applying them and understanding how to use them to generate valuable trading signals is a lot more straightforward. In this short guide we will examine five different indicators and explain how to use them. Indicators can generally be divided into two camps – trend following and momentum. Trend following indicators tend to lag price action. Momentum measures the rate that prices change and is said to lead price action. The first two indicators in this guide are trend-following in nature. These are the different moving averages and Bollinger Bands. Our final two indicators – the RSI and Stochastics – are momentum indicators. The exception and one that we deal with third is the MACD, or moving average convergence divergence, which combines aspects of trend-following and momentum to produce one of the most popular and valuable technical indicators. 1 Moving Averages A moving average is one of the simplest and most popular indicators that traders use. The aim is to filter out ‘noise’ by smoothing short-term fluctuations in price action. A moving average is a lagging indicator – it is good at showing a trend but signals tend to be given after a change in the price action. There are 3 major types of moving average - the Simple or Arithmetic, the Weighted and the Exponential.
