Are you using Technical Analysis to succeed in the Stock Markets?

Want to delve further into practical Technical Analysis beyond conventional understanding?

Then, this two-day Technical Analysis workshop is for you. Participants in this workshop will be exposed to advanced technical analysis concepts to gain greater clarity on price action.

The primary goal of this workshop is to simplify the Technical Analysis for you by using advanced concepts. It is designed to find your way of putting indicators and studies together into coherent strategies – across different asset classes and for different market conditions.

At the end of the workshop, you will be able to focus on the practical application of technical analysis and how to integrate it into your work process to improve profitability and control risk.

Session – 1

*Price Trends and Trendlines, Stage Analysis, Trend Change*

To achieve a success in the stock market, it is essential to understand the price action. Price is derived from the mass behavior in the market. The basic rule of investing or trading is identifying the trend and its reversal. Historically, every price trend undergoes various stages. We have to identify the trend reversal at a relatively early stage and ride the trend until the weight of evidence shows probability that the trend has reversed. If we are able to know at which stage the price trend is, we will be better placed to make wise decisions.

Session – 2

*Swing Trading, Calculating target & time: Some important Patterns*

Developing a trading style is vital to compete with fellow traders in the market. Price moves in trends, and each trend will have a swing. Over the decades, the basic rules of trading have not changed. The core elements of swing trading and technical analysis have not changed. During trends, counter-trends and consolidations are common. They form patterns repeatedly. And these patterns depict the psychology of market participants. All pattern outcomes are repeatedly the same again and again. This stone-age technique gives a fair idea about the entry, exit, target and time to reach the target. The workshop discusses set-ups for swing and pattern breakout trading.

Session – 3

*Trend & Momentum : Moving Averages and MACD*

The Moving Average is a basic trend indicator that market analysts use to determine the trend direction. They smooth the price data and give a fair idea about the trend. The conventional belief is that moving averages are lagging indicators. Each stock will have a different velocity of price action. Out of several combinations of averages, one unique moving average works well in all time frames. This average, combined with a momentum oscillator, offers high probability results. A set-up with a Trend indicator and a Momentum oscillator combination provides a crystal-clear entry and exit. A unique set-up offers an extraordinary edge in the market.

*Indicators – What to use? Why? How Many? Declutter the Chart*

“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication” Leonardo da Vinci’s quote exactly suits the Chartists. There is nothing wrong with the charts – the trouble is with the chartists. The Chart is a graphical representation of the actions of the buyers and sellers in the auction market place. Its interpretations are important. It varies from analyst to analyst. While Chart reading is neither easy nor foolproof, anyone can achieve expertise over time with regular study. If any confusion arises in price action, the indicators will help us determine the price’s internals. Some indicators help us identify trends, and some are for trend strength, momentum, volatility, and so on. They help us forecast, confirm and finally alert when something goes wrong. One should know the indicator’s character first. And then, what to use? How many to use? and why are we using them? Understanding their logic is important to building a trade set-up.

Session – 5

*RSI – The Dynamism and Versatility of the Relative Strength Index*

RSI has been the most popular and most used momentum indicator amongst market technicians across the world. No other technical indicator has gained such stupendous popularity as RSI has. However, most of the traders’ understanding of RSI revolves around Overbought & Oversold concepts, and Divergences. The more versatile and dynamic applications of RSI have remained in the private domains of only a select few experienced and seasoned traders. The workshop will explore applications of RSI in Trend Determination, Ideal Trend Lines, High Probability Entry, Stop Loss & Target levels, and Trend Reversal probabilities.

Session – 6

*Directional Movement – ADX & DMI: The Direction and Strength of Direction*

‘Directional Movement Indicator’ along with its derivative ‘Average Directional Movement Index’ is another versatile technical indicator that helps traders understand and pinpoint trade entry opportunities and exit cautions. Unlike other price-based indicators that use close price in their calculations, DMI is probably the only indicator that uses the High & Low prices in its calculations thus offering an entirely different perspective in momentum studies. The workshop will discuss aspects like when is a new trend starting to breakout, when is the trend strong for trade opportunities, when is a trend likely to enter consolidation, and reversing, etc.

Session – 7

*VWAP, AVWAP: The power of Volume Weighted Average Price*

VWAP has been the darling of Institutional Traders for determining the efficiency of their entries and exits and for evaluating the performance of their brokers in the execution of trades. VWAP has recently gained prominence among retail traders. ‘Anchored VWAP’ is an advanced and modern method of VWAP that is more dynamic than its older cousin. The indicator shows the degree of trading activity during defined periods of time. The workshop discusses different applications of VWAP and AVWAP, like trend confirmation, support & resistance, how institutions approach market participation using VWAP, versatile use of AVWAP for swing and short-term trading, etc.

How to Make a Good Trade

Today, technical analysis tools are available mostly freely to everyone. Even after knowing all about TA, traders are not able to make good trades. There is no lack of information. The John Naisbitt axiom “We are drowning in information, and starved for knowledge” aptly sums up traders’ situation. What we can get on various social media platforms is information. But, conversion of information into practical knowledge is a strenuous and yet honourable process demanding commitment, discipline, deep research and understanding, that keeps improving with practice and experience. You can attend or purchase webinars in bits and pieces. After all, most of us failed to make good trades consistently. Mindset is one important aspect of the trade, and luckily, the mind can be trained to be in sync with the markets.  A proper mindset helps to see things as they are and not how we want them to be. The workshop will address issues a trader faces and help develop the Right Knowledge, finding the right information useful for trading, reading and interpreting Charts and Others. Trading Plan includes Strategy, Setup, Trigger, Risk, Reward et al. The workshop will focus on “How to gain a potential trading edge using the right blend of the three pillars of trading: Mindset, Knowledge and Trading Plan.
