Use charts to see when the big money institutions are buying or selling.

​Those new to trading and stock investing are well aware of the excitement that comes when you first embark on this journey. The freedom it brings and the possibility for some incredible profits. Invariably this quest turns into the question: is there any benefit in learning to read charts?

The study of stock charts or what is called technical analysis is the study of an assets price behavior, price relationships and the volume of trades executed over a specified time period. In short it’s the study of price and volume, ignoring everything else. The ability to excel in this mixture of art and science which is called technical analysis can reap some pretty amazing profits, and it often implies an ability to predict the future.
