Technical Analysis is basically the study of stock market trading patterns. Believers who believe in technical analysis believe that just by looking at charts and looking for signs such as double tops or triple bottoms, one can predict the future price move of a stock. The Technical Analysts are not concerned with the "fundamentals." They often do not even bother to find out what kind of business the company is in whose shares they are trading in. The are interested only in the numbers in the short term. How to get into or out of a stock with a profit on a short term basis.
