Indicators Stock Indices Trading Technical Analysis

Most technical indicators are shown separately from the chart usually below it. This is because they often use a different scale than that of the price chart.

Moving Average (MA) - Using a variety of Stock Indices trading analysis studies, various types of trading signals can be generated from the currency charts using the moving averages. The MA indicates buy signals when currency prices rise above the moving average lines. Sell signals occur when the price falls below the moving average lines. Another method to trade with moving averages is using the MA crossover signals.

MACD is one of the trend following indicators, it has a signal line that is used to generate a buy signal (above the MACD center-line) or a sell signal (below the MACD center-line).

Volume based Stock Indices market analysis indicators are used to determine the momentum of market trends. High volume, especially near the bottom of the market can indicate the beginning of a new trend while low volume may indicate ranging markets or sideways market movements.

While prices that touch one of the outer band tends to go all the way to the other band. Bollinger Bands move in a particular direction up or down when there is a market trend.
