Of course, like I say, if i am good at TA as well, it would be of great help in determine the entry point. Mmmm, must start reading up some good books on this.

If one plans to hold the stocks for days or even weeks, then that person might use charts of shorter time frames, like hourly, 4-hourly, or even daily.

There are also weekly charts or even monthly charts that can be used for longer-term outlook.

Anyway, to use FA for short term purposes is also possible. I’ve done it before. In my earlier days of trading, I relied solely on FA to conduct my trades.

Whatever it is, in the financial markets, there are literally millions of ways to make money, so really, there’s no right or wrong.

TA determine the market from the charts, while a FA starts with the Financial statements

FA takes a long-term approach, often involved looking at data over a number of years to analyse the market, while TA used a much shorter time frame like weeks or even days. Hence, due to the different time frame of both, I would think that the goals of each is rather different. To me, TA is best used for a trade, ie, buy low sell high in shorter investment time horizon, whereas FA is meant to use for long term investment because the whole basis of FA is assuming that the short-term market is wrong, but that the price of a particular counter will correct itself over the long run to its so call “real value”. Real value of the company can’t really materialised over night…

But you are right, if we can use both together, the results can be a great one. For FA, after analyse a company potential, can use TA technique to figure out the best time to enter the undervalued counter to maximise the long term return. Likewise, TA can look at fundamentals of the counter to further enhance the decision making process.

Wonder why there are still so many fight between TA and FA supporter? They play different role in their own game in the first place!! Right?

I am no idea how to use TA method, perhaps is time to learn from you. Any tips?
