Dear Steve Lee: You didnt ask for it but I will give you my opinion of this T/A etc. IMHO in the past the only true way to invest was through the study of Fundamentals of a company. That is true today but because the market has changed an understanding of T/A certainly can enhance ones returns even over the long term. Why, because today the market is primarily, again IMHO, momentum driven. With the advent of on line trading commissions are nearly nil, information available to the individual trader is voluminous, and the "Day Trader" concept has sprung up to take over an incredible %age of the day to day volume in the market. Day traders and many momentum traders rarely look at a companies fundamentals, rather its price/volume action. T/A in its purest sense really just is a study of price/volume data. So for the investor, if he incorporates at least some knowledge of T/A into his fundamental analysis of a Company I believe that he can enhance his gains by either buying lower or selling higher than he might otherwise have done.
