The foreign exchange market (Forex, FX, or currency market) is a global decentralized market for the trading of currencies. The foreign exchange market assists international trade and investments by enabling currency conversion. Our study is to test the technical tools to analyze about the technical impact and its return in the market.  For this purpose 13 cross currency pairs were taken as sample size and Jensen’s Alpha, Beta, Relative Strength Index, and Buy and Hold Abnormal Return were used as technical tool for analysis and the conclusion is that it’s not preferred to invest in JPY pairs as the volatility and the return are not up to the mark and its preferred to invest in EURCAD as the return was high when compared to other scripts and the market was moving accordingly to its cross currency pair.

Technical analysis is an important part of financial industry, research, and teaching. The methodology has two parts: i) calculation of the individual tools and ii) visual representations. In this article, I provide a community-contributed command, candlechart, to draw the most common technical analysis charts. My intent is to draw these charts similarly to industry examples. The popular candle price chart is combined with charts for volume, moving-average convergence divergence, relative strength index, and Bollinger bands.

Abstract Application of simple prescriptions of technical analysis on the Warsaw Exchange Market (GPW) has been analyzed using several stocks belonging to WIG20 group as examples. Only long positions have been considered. Three well-known technical-analysis indicators of the market have been investigated: the Donchian channels, the Relative Strength Index, and Moving Average Convergence-Divergence indicator. Optimal values of parameters of those indicators have been found by „brute force“ evaluation of (linear) returns. It has been found that trading based on both Donchian channels and Relative Strength Index easily outperform the „buy and hold“ strategy if supplied with optimal values of parameters. However, those optimal values are by now means universal in the sense that they depend on particular stocks, and are functions of time. The optimal management of capital in the stock market strongly depends on the time perspective of trading. Finally, it has been argued that the criticism of technical analysis which is often delivered by academic quantitative financial science is unjustified as based of false premises.

Technical analysis is an analysis that widely applied by the investor in the stock market. However, various corporate announcements could cause the market to react, and the most significant corporate announcement is the earnings announcement (1). Thus, this study examines the effectiveness of technical analysis signals around the earning announcements dates in Malaysian stock market. In doing so, this study applied and tested four technical indicators, namely Simple Moving Average (SMA), Relative Strength Index (RSI), Stochastic (K line), and Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) in Malaysian stock market. The sample of this study consisted of 30 largest capitalization companies from the main market of Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange (KLSE). Meanwhile, the sample period covered from 2nd January 2014 to 31st March 2016. This study found that Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) significantly produced higher returns as compared to the other technical indicator before the earning announcement dates in financial year 2014 and 2015. The combined indicator of MA-MACD also found to have higher return in financial year 2015. The findings conclude that the technical analysis signals can be used to generate returns before earning announcement dates.  


This study has the aim of doing advanced research on technical analysis by finding reliability of buy or sell signals generated by the Relative Strength Index tool. In this study, the RSI tool is tested on Sensex components (30 stocks) for the last six months. The data set for this study had been the daily data, taken from NSE and BSE website. The study compares the return from RSI recommendations and simple buy and hold strategy returns. The study also aims at testing the RSI tool for its probability of generating false buy sell signals. The findings of this study clearly indicate that RSI can be a powerful tool in the markets over buy and hold strategy. The study also makes it clear that the probabilities of false signals are also limited.
