Comment pouvez-vous utiliser l’analyse technique pour identifier les superpositions et les bandes de graphiques ?

Let's go to the basic ones, overlays like Moving Averages (both Simple Moving Averages - SMA and Exponential Moving Averages - EMA) and Bands like Bollinger Bands are good enough to be understood and used in technical analysis. That's what I think, just my 2 cents.

En la actualidad existe un gran número de indicadores en el análisis técnico. Sin embargo, las superposiciones y bandas en los gráficos son herramientas bastante confiables para distintos tipos de temporalidades, por ejemplo una estrategia combinada entre Bandas de Bollinger y un cruce de Medias Móviles te podrá otorgar una confirmación del cambio de tendencia. El único detalle que tendrás en este caso, es que la confirmación de cruce de medias la tendrás después que haya ocurrido el cambio, por lo que el trade lo estarías tomando tarde. Aunque si el movimiento es lo suficientemente fuerte y queda espacio para que llegue a la banda de Bollinger en una temporalidad mayor tendrás una buena oportunidad de obtener ganancias.

When we started using charts in the early part of my career, one of the best tools was the Moving Average, EMA and Bollinger Band, the simplicity at which it gives you support, resistance, trend reversal, buy and sell call, that is going to boost trader confidence. Some Stocks like SBI follow Bollinger's band in the daily chart. Similarly 21-day ema and 55-day ema works fantastic for USDINR pair in 4 hourly charts

As of date, we have over 100 indicators available today. But to start using any of them one needs to understand that all of these indicators can be grouped into 4 main categories. 1) Trend following (eg- MA, ADX), 2) Oscillators (Eg- RSI, CCI), 3) Volatility indicators (Eg- Bollinger bands, ATR) 4) Support & Resistance (Eg- Pivot points, Donchian ch). While using these in any number and combination a trader must be aware of what essentially these indicators speak about. Pick up the right indicators as per the strategy need. There may be no point picking up all of them from a single category nor mixing one from each would help much.

Gleitende Durschnitte, ob nun einfach oder exponentiell, gehören für mich nach wie vor zu den besten Basisindikatoren, da sie von vielen Marktteilnehmern wahrgenommen werden. Ich empfehle meinen Kunden jedoch auch andere Parameter für z.B. SMA zu nutzen.

The best I could think of nowadays, we can use charting software to allow the use of overlays and bands. It will enable us to add on the overlays and bands on the price charts. However, some software may require a paid subscription in order to allow more tools to be used at one time, but no worries, the free version is still good though to allow us to use more than one tool at a time including overlays and bands although limited.

To apply chart overlays like moving averages (MA), select the desired MA period (e.g., 50-day or 200-day) and overlay it onto the price chart. Interpretation involves observing the MA's direction and its interaction with price. For bands like Bollinger Bands, overlay them onto the price chart, with the middle band representing the MA and the upper/lower bands indicating price volatility. Traders assess price movements relative to these bands for potential trading signals.

Start by determining the timeframe of your candlestick chart. Let's assume you are using the Daily chart. Then configure your overlays and bands, let's assume you are using the Moving Average as a chart overlay and bollinger bands. You need to specify the length of the moving average, meaning how many days back should your charting tool calculate the moving average. Typical periods are 14, 30, 50, 100, 200. The numbers represent how many days back to take into consideration for calculating the average. Same idea for the bands where you specifiy the length and the standard deviation (a bigger standard deviation will result in wider bands, etc...) Also you can choose the method of calculation: simple, exponential, weigthed, etc...

Bollinger Bands: Bollinger Bands consist of a simple moving average (typically over 20 periods) and two standard deviation bands above and below the moving average. These bands expand and contract based on market volatility. When prices are more volatile, the bands widen, and when prices are less volatile, the bands contract. Traders often use Bollinger Bands to identify overbought or oversold conditions. When prices touch or exceed the outer bands, it may suggest that the market is overextended and due for a reversal.

Ein gleitender Durchschnitt, z.B. die 200-Tagelinie kann als Unterstützung oder Widerstand zum aktuellen Marktpreis herangezogen werden. Eine weitere Möglichkeit ist die Analyse der Bewegungsrichtung des gleitenden Durchschnitts. So kann ein steigender gleitender Durchschnitt für einen freundlichen Kursverlauf des Underlyings sprechen.

You can interpret moving averages as support and resistance levels. Let's say the 50 days Simple Moving Average "SMA" of an asset is plotted as a line graph that looks like it's always under the price chart; you can then assume that the price is in an uptrend with the 50D SMA being the support. Same idea but inversed for an overlay acting as a Resistance level. The bands can be interpreted as the trading range of an asset since they are plotted using a short length moving average, typically 20 days back to determine the average price then +/- a standard deviation of let's say 2 points

By using chart overlays and bands, traders can gain insights into market trends, potential reversal points, and areas of support and resistance. However, it's important to remember that no single indicator is foolproof, and traders often use multiple indicators in conjunction with other forms of analysis to make informed trading decisions.

A simple yet effective approach would be to use the moving averages (chart overlays) as support and resistance levels based on which you can: - Buy at Support / Sell at Resistance if the market is range trading - Sell if Support is broken / Buy if Resistane is broken if the market is moving in trend (uptrend or downtrend) Same idea for bollinger bands, especially if the market is range trading, the bollinger bands can indicate the upper and lower range of the price. Once those limits are reached you can take a trading decision in line with your strategy.

Moving Averages: Moving averages are one of the most commonly used chart overlays. They smooth out price data by creating a constantly updated average price. The two most common types of moving averages are simple moving averages (SMA) and exponential moving averages (EMA). Traders use moving averages to identify trends and potential areas of support or resistance. For example, a price above its moving average might suggest an uptrend, while a price below its moving average might indicate a downtrend. Crossovers between shorter-term and longer-term moving averages (e.g., a 50-day SMA crossing above a 200-day SMA) can also signal potential changes in trend direction.

A technical analysis should be taken as a descriptive analysis, as it analyzes past data. It should only be used to understand the trend and pattern. however, one needs to understand descriptive analysis is not predictive analysis. Indicators don't forecast.

Normale, gleitende Durchschnitte mit hohen Parametern, z.B. die 200-Tagelinie sind träge. Um hier einen besseren Workflow zu haben, empfehle ich die zusätzliche Nutzung von exponentiellen gleitenden Durchschnitte oder des KAMA.

IMHO, like the rest indicators in TA, the main 'downside' of the chart overlays e.g. Simple Moving Averages, EMA and bands e.g. Bollinger Bands are all based on historical data. Hence, hey may not be the absolute tools to gauge the next price movements, but at least they may help to predict so. For that, it is important to couple them with other technical analysis tools, such as the indicators and chart patterns & trending analysis.

The advantages are clear: - determining whether the price is following a certain trend (from overlays) - determining the range of the price for a certain period (from bands) - additional support and resistance levels The disadvantages in my opinion are the different techniques and configurations to plot (draw) the chart overlays and bands. Since there are many ways to calculate and plot moving averages and bands, the result will vary from a user to another and hence the support/resistance levels will vary from a chart to another. Whereas if you are drawing S/R horizontal lines according to historical highs and lows, the result is more or less the same for all traders which inherently confirms the S/R levels and making them stronger.

Technical analysis utilizes chart overlays and bands to identify key price levels and trends. Overlays like moving averages (MA) reveal trend direction and potential support/resistance areas. Bollinger Bands, a volatility indicator, consist of an MA with upper and lower bands indicating price volatility and potential reversal points. By analyzing these overlays and bands, traders can assess market sentiment, spot potential entry/exit points, and manage risk effectively.

Ichimoku Cloud: The Ichimoku Cloud, also known as Ichimoku Kinko Hyo, is a comprehensive indicator that provides information about support and resistance levels, trend direction, and momentum. The cloud, or "Kumo," is formed between two lines called the Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B. These lines are projected forward in time to provide future areas of support and resistance.
