Why is technical analysis so important?
Technical analysis focuses on examining and anticipating price movements in financial markets. Technical analysts learn to identify historical market patterns so they can predict forthcoming market trends and make smart trending decisions based on those predictions. Not surprisingly, an enterprise technical analysis solution helps visualize movements and patterns in a meaningful way.
To vendors and brokerages, a good technical analysis solution is key to attracting and retaining active traders. A weak technical analysis offering that doesn’t advance along with new analysts, or impress current power analysts, will cost you valuable clients. By investing in a technical analysis charting solution with the most advanced tools on the market, you’re guaranteed customers for life.
