Technical Analysis


Technical analysis is the study of a stock, or the market as a whole, strictly by using the price and volume history of a stock.  Technical analysis uses little or no information about the actual business behind the stock.  The common belief is that a stock price represents all known information about a stock.  Technical analysis is an alternative to fundamental analysis.

Our service provides a very specialized type of technical analysis, performing real-time statistical analysis on all relevant market data.  Like many people we believe that changes in the fundamentals will be visible through technical analysis.
