Are You Favor Fundamental Analysis or Technical Analysis? I Have Another One….

Recommended Posts

Fundamental analysis or technical analysis are great tools and I believe that many are quite familiar with those. But one day I used my own way and surprised, I found that it also can make money. It’s very simple, just used my eyes looked at the raw data of price curve vs. volume without any makeup tools on it. I used my feeling to feel the trend since stock market only go up or down two directions. Then I found that I still can make money. Believe it or not, I can see 3D picture without using 3D glasses, just refocus my eyes consciously. Cheers, just for fun and have a great weekend. :confused:

If you have a small capital to trade or invest with ,then maybe fundamental analysis wont do much help as its a long term strategy. For small capital trading technical analysis will suite more..

It is not an essay task to know the differences between fundamental and technical investment analysis, as they are many. Most investors believe they are using one method or the other, if they understand the differences which most of them don't and thus, In reality, a majority of investors are using a combination of these two types of analysis. For me, I consider myself using an analysis which is 70% based on the fundamental analysis and the rest 30% of the technical analysis.

I am in the favor of fundamental analysis ! If you are asking me to choose one of these two only ! But if there is no strict restriction, using both makes the most sense to me. Since fundamental and technical analysis provides information that adds insight to investment analysis. I use to use the Fundamental analysis first ! Because I think technical analysis is not enough alone to confirm the findings but it can be helpful if you use fundamental analysis first and then technical analysis.

Well, I personally think that the combination of both must be used. But with gravitation towards fundamental analysis.

 

Technical must be more like making steps or choosing your speed and changing gears in the car, while fundamental is more about choosing direction and turning the wheel. You know how fast (high) or slow (low) you can go, but you must pay attention to the road (news) and make your choices accordingly.

 

I'm more in favor of sidra position. More than half of fundamental and less than half of technical.

Fundamental or technical analyses are both great tools! For some extent, I believe the mental activities to make the right decision behind these tools maybe the key. There are so many interactions behind the scene, even many use the same tools or same procedures. Could we find a scientific way to predict it? Could we win the game even if we think that we could predict it? Cheers, have a fun.

I use both of them, because is very important to know technical and fundamental analysis to. If you are a scalper must be carful, don't trade with your technical analysis if coming strong news. I like scalp trade, so I always look for news before a trade.

 

Good luck

IMO main priority should always be fundamentals cause fundamentalists are the ones who survive any market conditions....People like Warren Buffet, Karl Icahn, George Soros etc have not only survived but thrived for decades cause they dont take chances unless the forecast-ed output is strong and concrete which is done through studying fundamentals....

Technicals can be more useful for short term retailers but still Fundamentals cant be ignored if u are serious in this business..

I would say I use TA , but also psychological analysis as that works better for me. I find behavioral finance methods work better for me than 2 lines crossing some other line on a chart.

This.

 

Technical is about short-term fluctuations and seeing some pattern how strong is the "storm".

But market reacts to news and that's why priority always must go to fundamentals. Well, obviously you must have logical and analytical abilities to profit from it.

 

I think you are better off with fundamental analysis if you want to take larger profits.

IMO, Technical analysis should be preferred while making trading decisions and Fundamental analysis should be preferred while making investment decisions.

 

Aren't we talking about forex here? Which is more trading, than investment? So that means you are in favor of technical?

 

Traders, please keep the discussion alive, it is very interesting to listen to different point of views, but it seems that nobody cares..

I will definitely use Technical analysis for trading in FOREX and will use Fundamental analysis if I want to make an investment (for more than 12 months) into Equities or Bonds.

    • Why not to simply connect you account to myfxbook which will collect all this data automatically for you? The process you described looks tedious and a bit obsolete but may work for you though.
    • The big breakthrough with AI right now is “natural language computing.”   Meaning, you can speak in natural language to a computer and it can go through huge data sets, make sense out of them, and speak back to you in natural language.   That alone is a huge breakthrough.   The next leg? AI agents. Where they don’t just speak back to you.   They take action. Here’s the definition I like best: an AI agent is an autonomous system that uses tools, memory, and context to accomplish goals that require multiple steps.   Everything from simple tasks (analyzing web traffic) to more complex goals (building executive briefings or optimizing websites).   They can:   > Reason across multiple steps.   >Use tools like a real assistant (Excel spreadsheets, budgeting apps, search engines, etc.)   > Remember things.   And AI agents are not islands. They talk to other agents.   They can collaborate. Specialized agents that excel at narrow tasks can communicate and amplify one another’s strengths—whether it’s reasoning, data processing, or real-time monitoring.   What it Looks Like You wake up one morning, drink your coffee, and tell your AI agent, “I need to save $500 a month.”   It gets to work.   First, it finds all your recurring subscriptions. Turns out you’re paying $8.99 for a streaming service you forgot you had.   It cancels it. Then it calls your internet provider, negotiates a lower bill, and saves you another $40. Finally, it finds you car insurance that’s $200 cheaper per year.   What used to take you hours—digging through statements, talking to customer service reps on hold for an hour, comparing plans—is done while you’re scrolling Twitter.   Another example: one agent tracks your home maintenance needs and gets information from a local weather-monitoring agent. Result: "Rain forecast next week - should we schedule gutter cleaning now?"   Another: an AI agent will plan your vacations (“Book me a week in Italy for under $2,000”), find the cheapest flights, and sort out hotels with a view.   It’ll remind you to pay bills, schedule doctor’s appointments, and track expenses so you’re not wondering where your paycheck went every month.   The old world gave you tools—Excel spreadsheets, search engines, budgeting apps. The new world gives you agents who do the work for you.   Don’t Get Too Scared (or Excited) Yet William Gibson famously said: "The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed."   AI agents will distribute it. For decades, the tools that billionaires and corporations used to get ahead—personal assistants, financial advisors, lawyers—were out of reach for regular people.   AI agents could change that.   BUT, remember…   We’re in inning one.   AI agents have a ways to go.   They’re imperfect. They mess up. They need more defenses to get ready for prime time.   To be sure, AI is powerful, but it’s not a miracle worker. It’s great at helping humans solve problems, but it’s not going to replace all jobs overnight.   Instead of fearing AI, think of it as a tool to A.] save you time on boring stuff and B.] amplify what you’re already good at. Right now is the BEST time to start experimenting. It’s also the best time to find investments that will “make AI work for you”.

    • What a wild year.   AI seems to be appearing everywhere you look, Paris hosted a weird Olympics, unrest continues in the Middle East, the US endured a crazy-heated election, and the largest rocket ever to fly successfully landed in a giant pair of robot arms.   Okay, but what about the $money stuff?   Well, this year we've seen a load of uncertainty - inflation is still biting and many businesses have gone down.   Property has been very fractured, with developments becoming prohibitively expensive, while other markets have boomed.   It hasn't been an easy ride, that's for sure.   However, the stock market has had some outstanding results, and for those who know how to trade, some have done VERY well for themselves.   Some have replaced their incomes. Some have set themselves up for the rest of their days on this planet.   How about you? How did you go?
