Technical Analysis: Is The Trend Your Friend?

know at a glance when to get in, when to get out and how to make 5% per month along the way!

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!

These are:

• Stochastics

• Money Flow

• Moving averages

• Candlesticks

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 Oscillator is 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 trend Readings 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.

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.

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.

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.

that turn confirmed

So now we have a share whatshall we do with it?

• We could just hang on to it• We could roll it• We could sell options• And much more!

INVESTMENT CLUB NATIONAL CONFERENCE 2007

Page 24: Jeff Fitzpatrick Darlington Dealers Investment Club

So what about options?• Once we own a share we can sell an option.

• Let’s say we own 100 shares in WSM (Williams Sonoma Inc) and we paid $29.12 for each one.

• We could sell the right for someone to buy these shares off us before a set date, at a particular price point for a consideration.

• In this example; we could sell the option to take our shares at $30.00 in just 4 days time for 85c giving a return of 2.9% if they do not buy them and 5.9% if they do!

• So how do we find such deals?
