Technical Analysis Tools for Beginners

[Sbrown]

Greetings,

I'm starting to delve into technical analysis and would love some guidance. What are the essential technical indicators or chart patterns that a beginner should focus on? Any suggested reading materials or tools?

 

[Jason Libson]

For beginners in technical analysis, focus on key indicators like Moving Averages (MA), Relative Strength Index (RSI), and MACD. Chart patterns such as Head and Shoulders, Double Tops/Bottoms, and support/resistance levels are crucial. Recommended reading includes "Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets" by John Murphy. Tools like TradingView and MetaTrader 4/5 can help practice chart analysis.

I would say just focus on understanding the market, top down analysis to know if we are bullish or bearish and etc
