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.
Popular article: Time Series Forecast
Time Series Forecast (TSF) is an instrument of technical analysis including linear measurement of regression computed as per the method of least-squares. This indicator's operation is similar to linear regression in the part of determining presence/absence of trend on a considered time-frame. On chart TSF is drawn as the curve consisting of the last points of several lines of linear regression trend. Besides, TSF defines incline angle for trend (ascending or descending) and is able to forecast further movement of price on market. That is to say, under ascending trend Time Series Forecast defines its incline angle and through matching it with real price calculates its value in the next period of time. If tendency of price movement remains, the indicator is able to define course of its movement at a rather high precision.
