What is technical analysis?
Technical analysis is a type of analysis derived purely from charts and the price movement of the security. The basis of technical analysis is that past price movement is a good indicator for future price movement. Technical analysis uses statistical trends such as trading volume and historical support / resistance levels to gauge the movement of the price in the future. This in contrast to fundamental analysis, which involves looking at a security from a financial and economic point of view.

As the news cycle slows, with the election in the past alongside initial vaccine hype fading away, it is essential to realize that not only is the Coronavirus continuing to ravage the economy, it continues to ravage the families and lives of many around the world.

Stock of the week: Transurban (TCL)
With the vaccine on the horizon, I was thinking about an industry that should indirectly benefit from an increase in worldwide economic activity. For example, we can safely assume that airline equities will rally on the back of confirmation of a working vaccine. However, ancillary services to airlines should follow through with the airline rally, for example, companies who make the food for the airlines or airports.
Bitcoin – $60,000 and beyond?
There’s a saying the markets have adopted over time: “Buy the rumor, sell the news.” And the cryptocurrency market is no exception. Bitcoin has recently propelled itself to $18,000 – with minimal coverage on the news if we compared its coverage in 2019. However, another rule that I personally go by – If your mum is talking about it, it’s a strong signal to sell. By “Mum,” I mean anyone who generally is not associated with the specific market.
