Securities Analysis and Portfolio Management of Selected NSE Securities

Abstract

“Technical Analysis is the study of data generated by the action of markets and by the behaviour and psychology of market participants and observers”: -Constitution of the market technicians Association Technical analysis is a completely different approach to stock market investing- it doesn’t try to find the intrinsic value of a company or try to find whether a share is mispriced or undervalued. "Technical analysis is the study of market action, primarily through the use of charts, for the purpose of forecasting future price trends. “A technical analyst is interested only in the price movements in the market. So, it is all about analysing the demand and supply or a price volume analysis. Technical analysis considers only the actual price behaviour of the market or instrument, based on the premise that price reflects all relevant factors before an investor becomes aware of them through other channels. These stock market indicators would help the investor to identify major market turning points. This paper examines the technical analysis of selected companies which helps to understand the price behaviour of the shares, the signals given by them and to assist investment decisions in the Indian stock Market.
