Derivatives Programme for Investors

This initiative is supported by the Capital Market Development Fund (CMDF)

Technical analysis is the study of price patterns to identify trading and investment opportunities in the derivatives market. It is about charting data and interpreting the chart using technical tools and techniques. Charting is important for traders and investors to understand the behaviour and direction of the market. With adequate knowledge in technical analysis, traders and investors would be able to chart their own graph using historical price to determine which strategies to use for their trading.

This webinar will uncover technical analysis and how to interpret charts, trends and patterns of the historical market price for trading and investment in the derivatives market.
