Usually traders use two types of analysis in Forex – technical and fundamental. The first one involves chart analysis with application of mathematical methods and principles. Fundamental Analysis in Forex implies monitoring of political and economic indicators as well as monetary policy of countries. The main difference between the methods is the approach to the creation of price on the chart. Traders who prefer technical analysis think that it is enough to analyse the actual prices, because this data already includes all indications and reasons of change. However, followers of fundamental approach state that prices depend on fundamental factors and mark relationship between demand and supply. Thus, using technical approach traders analyse prices and relying on fundamental approach they deal with analysis of the trading instrument. Fundamental analysis in Forex examines political, economic, macro- and micro indicators not only for individual countries, but for global environment also.
By technical analysis we should basically understand employment of price chart (and results of its math interpretation) for further market and price forecast. Technical analysis rests upon repeated nature of market and implies that ups and downs of currency quotations on charts are rotated according to certain time periods. An advantage of technical analysis is its universal application: with its help one can research any financial contract for any period of time. The market accounts for everything. That means that any event, which could affect price behavior is already accounted by market and is reflected on the price chart. This proposition means that all factors impacting the price will be definitely reflected in its behavior, therefore, it is required to monitor quote graph.
