BAR CHART
 The bar chart shows the complete price
movements of a stock.
 It reveals the day’s opening price, low
price, high price, closing price and the
volume of a stock.
 The closing price and opening price are
marked in between the high price and low
price by marking a tick on the vertical bar.
 The volume of transactions is shown as
separate vertical bars in the bottom portion
LINE CHART
 It is the simple presentation of price
movement of a stock over a specified
period.
 The period is represented by “X” axis
and the price movement is represented
by “Y” axis.
 The closing price of the stock for
various period are plotted in the chart
with dots and then all the dots are
joined by a line.
CONT…
 Line charts can be prepared by considering
daily closing price, weekly closing price or
monthly closing price.
 To predict short term movements’, daily
closing price can be used to prepare line
charts.
 To predict medium term and long term
movements the weekly and monthly
closing price can be considered.
 Traders in the stock market prepare intra –
POINT AND FIGURE CHART
 It is useful to predict the change of
price direction.
 The price interval of the stock is
entered on the left side of the chart.
 When the price of the scrip moves up
to the next price interval then it is
marked up with “X” symbol and as
long as the share price increases the "X"
symbols are plotted in the vertical
column.
CONT…
 When the share price declines by the
price intervals then the chart is plotted
with “O” symbols in the next column.
 The price movements are analyzed and
interpreted by reading the ‘X” and “O”
symbols on the chart.
 The point and figure chart shows the
support and resistance levels and also
indicates the buy and sells signals.
JAPANESE CANDLESTICK
CHART

than the opening price then it is considered
as increase in price.
CONT…
 When the day’s closing price is less
than the opening price it is considered
as decrease in price and the candle is
shaded.
 It shows the day’s opening price, low
price, high price and closing price and
the price movements.
 It can be prepared for weekly or
monthly.
PATTERNS
What is mean by
Patterns?
 A chart pattern is a distinct formation
on a stock chart that creates a
trading signal, or a sign of
future price movements.
 Chartists use these patterns to
identify current trends and trend
reversals and to trigger buy and sell
signals.
Types
 Double Top
 Double Bottom
 Head and Shoulder
 Inverted Head and Shoulder Pattern
 Symmetrical Triangle
 Ascending Triangle
 Descending Triangle
 Flag and Pennant
 Support and Resistance
Double Top
 A double top consists of two well-defined,
sharp peaks at approximately the same
price level.
 A double top occurs when prices are in an
uptrend.
 The pattern is complete when prices decline
below the lowest low in the formation. The
lowest low is called the confirmation point.
 In this the prices are expected to fall
i.e., this is the signal to sell.
Double Bottom
 In a double bottom, the price of the
stock falls to a certain level and
increasing with diminishing activity.
 Then it falls again to the same or to a
lower and turns up to a higher level.
 The double bottom resembles the letter
‘W’. Technical analysis view double
bottom as a sign for the Bull market
i.e., it is a signal to buy.
Head and Shoulder
 It is generally regarded as up trends.
 It is also most reliable when found in an
uptrend as well.
Sellers come in at the highs (left
shoulder) and the downside is probed
(beginning neckline).
 Buyers soon return to the market and
ultimately push through to new highs
(head).
Inverted Head and Shoulder
Pattern
 The head and shoulders pattern can
sometimes be inverted.
 The inverted head and shoulders are typically
seen in downtrends.
 The inverted head and shoulders is the
volume aspect.
 The inverted left shoulder should be
accompanied by an increase in volume.
 The inverted head should be made on lighter
volume.
Symmetrical Triangle
 The symmetrical triangle, which can
also be referred to as a coil, usually
forms during a trend as a continuation
pattern.
 The pattern contains at least two lower
highs and two higher lows.
 When these points are connected, the
lines converge as they are extended and
the symmetrical triangle takes shape.
Ascending Triangle
 Ascending triangle patterns are bullish
and often form within uptrend’s in
stocks as continuation patterns.
 The ascending triangle pattern
resembles a narrowing triangle with a
horizontal line of overhead resistance
for the stock and an ascending trend line
or rising trend line beneath the stock.
Descending Triangle
 Descending triangle patterns are
bearish and often form within
downtrends in stocks as continuation
patterns.
 The descending triangle pattern
resembles a narrowing triangle with a
horizontal line of support beneath the
stock and a descending trend line
or downtrend line above the stock.
Flag and Pennant
 These two short-term chart patterns are
continuation patterns that are formed when
there is a sharp price movement followed by
a generally sideways price movement.
 This pattern is then completed upon another
sharp price movement in the same direction
as the move that started the trend.
 The patterns are generally thought to last
from one to three weeks.
Support and Resistance
 Technical analysts often talk about the
ongoing battle between the bulls and the
bears, or the struggle between buyers
(demand) and sellers (supply).
 This is revealed by the prices a security
seldom moves above (resistance) or
below (support).
 Support and resistance levels are the levels
at which a lot of traders are willing to buy
the stock (in the case of a support) or sell it
(in the case of resistance).
EFFICIENT MARKET
THEORY
Introduction
 Efficient Market Theory states that
the share prices fluctuations are
random and do not follow any
regular pattern.
 Meanwhile technical analysts see
meaningful patterns in their
charts.
Meaning
 In 1970, Fama stated that efficient
market fully reflect the available
information.
 If markets are efficient, securities
price reflect normal returns for their
level of risk.
Fama suggested that efficient
market hypothesis can be divided
into three categories.
Cont…
 Weak Form of EM
Which absorbs only market’s past price
information.
 Semi strong Form
Which absorbs past price information
and also all other public information
and
 Strong Form
Which absorbs all types of information
including insider information.
Weak form of EMH
 The type of information used in
the weak form of EMH is the
Historical prices.
 According to it, current prices
reflect all information found in the
past prices and traded volumes.
Semi – Strong Form
 It states that the security price adjusts rapidly
to all publicly available information.
 The prices not only reflect the past price
data, but also the available information
regarding the Earnings of the Corporate,
Dividend, Bonus issue, Right Issue,
mergers, Acquisitions and so on.
 In this market a few insiders can earn Profit
on a short run price changes rather than the
investors who adopt the Buy and hold Policy.
DOW THEORY
Introduction
 Dow Theory was formulated from a
series of Wall Street Journal editorials
authored by Charles H. Dow from 1900
until the time of his death in 1902.
 These editorials reflected Dow’s beliefs
on how the stock market behaved and
how the market could be used to
measure the health of the business
environment.
Cont….
 Dow first used his theory to create the Dow
Jones Industrial Index and the Dow
Jones Rail Index (now Transportation
Index), which were originally compiled by Dow
for The Wall Street Journal.
 Dow created these indexes because he felt they were an
accurate reflection of the business conditions within
the economy because they covered two major economic
segments: industrial and rail.
 While these indexes have changed over the last
100 years, the theory still applies to current
market indexes.
RANDOM WALK THEORY
Theory
 Random walk theory gained popularity in
1973 when Burton Malkiel wrote "A
Random Walk down Wall Street", a book
that is now regarded as an investment
classic.
 Random walk is a stock market theory
that states that the past movement or
direction of the price of a stock or
overall market cannot be used to
predict its future movement.
Cont…
 In his book, Malkiel preaches that both
technical analysis and fundamental
analysis are largely a waste of time and are
still unproven in outperforming the markets.
 Malkiel constantly states that a long-term
buy-and-hold strategy is the best.
 Attempts based on technical, fundamental,
or any other analysis are futile.
 It's hard to say how much truth there is to
this theory;
