Synopsis:

Volume, Trend and Momentum with Phillip Roth

In this highly informative video presentation, Chartered Market Technician Philip J. Roth illustrates key chart patterns and what they mean, showing how they can be used to identify market tops, market bottoms, key trend reversal signals and, most importantly, to define and control risks. It’s an essential primer for anyone hoping to become a practiced technical analyst – as
evidenced by the fact that the presentation was made at the 2005 Market Technician’s Association training seminar for those hoping to earn their own accreditation as Chartered Market Technicians.

Jacket Description:

From the MTA Education Seminar 2005 –
Technical Analysis University

Increase your professional financial skill set by adding technical tools

Our Technical Analysis University faculty consists of five of the most well-known technicians in the world. This session is designed for portfolio managers and fundamental analysts who are looking for an intensive one-day course on technical analysis. In just one day, attendees will come away with an understanding of how various charts are constructed and interpreted. The course will cover integrating technical analysis with fundamental analysis and using technical analysis to quickly get an overall sense of the direction of the equity, fixed income, commodity and currency markets, and use movements in one to forecast another.

This one-day event, captured on disc, brings together five notable technicians to educate newcomers to technical analysis on the basics of technical analysis in a series of five one-hour classes. Topics range from basic chart construction, to advanced charting such as point & figure and Japanese candle charting.

Attendees, and now viewers, will learn from one of the most experienced individuals to hold both the CFA and CMT charters on how to meld these two approaches to identify promising investment opportunities. Legendary technician John Murphy wraps up the day with a session on intermarket analysis, explaining how the charts of commodity, currency, bond and equity markets can be used in conjunction with one another to get a broad overall read of the state and likely future direction of global markets. The presentations include a significant amount of time for one-on-one interactions as well as Q&A opportunities with these technicians.
