INTRODUCTORY TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
Day Trading beginner
Because fundamental factors that can drive a market, such as earnings reports, national employment and retail sales, are released
relatively infrequently (monthly or quarterly), much of the price movement throughout the day say, of the
E-mini® S&P 500® futures, reflects technical considerations. Consequently, the day trader needs to be
aware of the tools of technical analysis.
Technical analysts look for patterns or formations in
prices that persist over time and then attempt to exploit that information to predict future price movements.
Most technical analysis can be applied to day trading simply by reducing the time interval over which calculations are made.
For example, instead of using a daily bar chart, the E-mini S&P 500 day trader might use a bar chart
calculated every 15-minutes. Moving averages can similarly be calculated over short time periods.
