STA #TechnicalAnalysis
February was a busy month of lecturing for me.
Highlights were two lectures given at KingsCollege London and QueenMary University London, organised by the Society of Technical Analysts. I was presenting on their Masters degree programmes on two of my favourite subjects – Trading and TechnicalAnalysis. Both were great interactive sessions and I hope the students enjoyed and learnt from them – good luck with the trading!

The FinTech arm of our business started in mid 2016, built on the foundations of many years of experience working for banks, brokers and trading houses. We take on many different assignments in this space: We design, test and build systematic trading systems and analytical tools. After initially coming up with an idea for a technical analysis based trading system, testing it on a couple of assets and getting amazing backtest results toward the end of 2016, we decided to do something a bit different and create an all encompassing systematic trading approach that we could trade for ourselves using our own money, and truly put our ideas to the test!
We decided from the outset, that once live, we’d run it for one whole year and then publish what we found. This article outlines our year of trading the system, the background to it, issues and problems we faced and most importantly, the end financial result (which is sort of given away in the title!)
We’ve finally come to the last article in our 25 part technical analysis series. I hope you’ve enjoyed it and found it beneficial? In the previous article, we looked at applying technical analysis to Risk & Trade management. There is still though another great, not so obvious, use for technical analysis that we need to look at before wrapping up this series. Another part of the trading and investing jigsaw to piece together! I hope by now, you’re starting to see that technical analysis is not a one dimensional tool. Applying and using the basic inputs to your technical analysis in a simple quantitative/qualitative process, can go a long way to improving your results. [Read more…]
Successful trading is about helping yourself and putting the ‘odds’ on your side. In part 23 we looked at strategy, design and implementation. This week, we’re going to take a brief look at an often forgotten and overlooked use of technical analysis: Risk & Trade Management. If you are a raw fundamentalist, or don’t want to use technical analysis to make trading execution decisions, that’s fine, but I think you’re being foolish if you don’t consider using technical analysis to improve your risk & trade management processes.
