What is a technical analysis? Why do you need to know this definition? The MoneySense Glossary is your resource for learning and understanding financial terms.
Technical analysis is the theory that price charts for stocks and other securities reflect investor psychology and can reveal profitable trading opportunities. Technical analysts, also called chartists, study charts looking for patterns they believe signal the direction and magnitude of future price moves.
Example: “Technical analysts use methods such as chart analysis, quantitative analysis and market cycle analysis to study past stock price movements and look for recurring patterns.”
