First of all, I would like to thank Chip Anderson for giving me this opportunity to express my thoughts, ideas and analysis of the Indian stock markets on the StockCharts.

I am excited to get started, and am looking forward to being a part of a wonderful research team! Before I dive into my market analysis methodology, let me introduce myself briefly.

I have a keen interest in stock markets, and I love analysing and writing tactical research reports for a variety of audience that includes institutions as well as large retail traders and speculators. In addition, I am also involved in testing various seasonality-based observations in price action across asset classes.

I completed my Post Graduation in Financial Management from the M. University, Vadodara in June The financial markets are a fascinating place built on the twin pillars of greed and fear.

My hope is that this blog turns into an exploration of simple but useful concepts in technical analysis that actually work read: I follow a top-down market analysis approach, starting with the major trend of various asset classes and broader market equity indices, then sectors and finally stocks. From a chart setup perspective, I use a candlestick chart as they are more appealing than bar or line charts along with Bollinger channels separated by 2 standard deviations that help me analyse the general direction of prices, and the width of the bands signifies the range of price fluctuations from a 20 period Exponential Moving average that can be used as a trend proxy.

I can broadly categorize chart setups into the following categories: For scanning charts and opportunities, I advocate a multiple time-frame approach. The beauty of multiple time-frame analysis is that it adds an extra layer of depth and clarity to price action on your primary time-frame.

I identify setups by observing price action on three time frames:. Daily 2 Higher Time Frame: Weekly 3 Lower Time Frame: In order to succeed in trading, the presence of a true edge in your methodology is paramount to success. Over the years, I feel that a solid grip of technical analysis principles and price patterns is helpful, but of more importance is the need to understand the psychology behind pattern formations.

This understanding comes in mighty handy in spotting imbalances in demand and supply that ultimately lead to the establishment of trends in price action. I hope this blog will be a long and mutually beneficial journey for all of us as we tread the difficult but rewarding path of market speculation and continuously seek to improve our confidence, skill-sets and awareness in this financial jungle.

India is a very exciting place to be an investor right now and I'm thrilled that we now have the full power of StockCharts. Additionally, I would also request you to join the discussions by posting comments that reflect your thoughts, opinions and observations.
