  3. How Many Factors Can You Juggle? • My technical analysis capability has around 50 factors and often dozens of variations, such as a different number of days in a moving average, for many of them • Time today, with about 30 minutes is too short to do justice to any of them • I am therefore concentrating on how we use the most basic technical analysis factors to make ~ 5% per month! INVESTMENT CLUB NATIONAL CONFERENCE 2007

  4. These are: • Stochastics • Money Flow • Moving averages • Candlesticks INVESTMENT CLUB NATIONAL CONFERENCE 2007

  5. Indicator No 1 ~ Stochastic Oscillator • The first indicator that we look at. This is simply because it is the easiest to see rather than the best indicator! • Stochastic Oscillatoris a momentum indicator that shows the location of the current close relative to the high/low range over a set number of periods. Closing levels that are consistently near the top of the range indicate accumulation (buying pressure) and those near the bottom of the range indicate distribution (selling pressure). • What we want to see in the trendReadings below 20 are considered oversold and readings above 80 are considered overbought. George C. Lane, the originator of Stochastics, believed that some of the best signals occurred when the oscillator moved from overbought territory back below 80 and from oversold territory back above 20. INVESTMENT CLUB NATIONAL CONFERENCE 2007

  6. Indicator No 2 ~Money Flow (Oscillating) • Measures the flow of money into and out of a company. • Attempts to measure the balance of supply and demand. • For example, if the closing price is midway between the high and the low, then money flow pressure is balanced and the factor is zero. • At a glance I want the money flow to be rising, from ANY POINT and I want to see a trend building through 3 days of rises. INVESTMENT CLUB NATIONAL CONFERENCE 2007

  7. Indicator No 3 ~ Moving Averages • We look at the 10 day MA as our short term and the 20 day as our long term MA. • As far as the trend is concerned we simply want to see the two averages moving closer together. INVESTMENT CLUB NATIONAL CONFERENCE 2007

  8. Indicator No 4 ~ Candlesticks • A candlestick chart is a style of bar chart used primarily to describe price movements of an equity over time. • It is a combination of a line-chart and a bar-chart, in that each bar represents the range of price movement over a given time interval. • Candlesticks are usually composed of the body (often black or white), an upper and a lower shadow (wick). The wick illustrates the highest and lowest traded prices of a stock, and the body the opening and closing trades. If the stock went up, the body is white, with the opening price at the bottom of the body and the closing price at the top. If the stock went down, the body is black, with the opening price at the top and the closing price at the bottom. A candlestick need not have either a body or a wick.
