Trading System
A technical analysis indicator is used to determine
the trend of a market, the strength of the market and the direction of the
market. A technical analysis indicator may be specific or non-specific.
Some
technical analysis indicators can be quantified in the form of an
equation or algorithm. Others show up as patterns (e.g. head and
shoulders, trendlines, support and resistance).
S&P Small Cap 600 Index Technical Analysis Rules
A trading system is created by generating signals, setting up a
decision making procedure, and incorporating risk management into the
system. A trading system is supposed to be objective and mechanical. The
analyst combines a set of objective trading rules (usually in a formula(s)
or algorithm(s)).
As a general rule, good technical analysis indicators are the building
blocks of good trading systems. However, as previously mentioned, even
good technical analysis indicators can lose their validity when combined
in a trading system. Therefore, it is important to not only back-test your
system but to also forward-test your system in real time.
