Learn a few basics and use it consistently. It is not necessary to know everything before making a start. I would suggest learning candlestick patterns (continuation and reversal patterns), technical indicators (MACD, SMA/EMA), support and resistance concepts and chart patterns (continuation and reversal patterns). Best wishes

You need not remember all the candlestick patterns if you understand the concept of support and resistance. Best wishes

Krish - If you are trading now - stop trading.

TA is not a rocket science.
Read the book Technical analysis of stock trends by Edwards and magee.

Read the below.
http://www.babypips.com
http://www.incrediblecharts.com/technical/dow_theory_trends.php


Down load ICM metatrader forex MT4 - which has nifty and 10 stocks and also
crude/silver/gold/USD/INR charts free.Where you can paper trade and practice. Or device your system/strategy.

Some thing which comes to my mind immediately

Trend - up/down/sideways.
So what is a trend ? how to define a trend.
a) Series of higher lows forms up trend
b) Series of lower highs forms down trend.
c) If price violates a and B price is said to be in sideways or no trend.


What is a support/resistance. - Previous low is a support and previous high is resistance.

What Are fibonnaci levels ? - retracement/extension.
Floor pivots.
------------

Some chart patterns
---------------------
Double bottom/double Top.
Head and shoulders - Inverse Head and shoulders.
Cup and Handle - Inverted cup and handle.
FLAG/PENTANTS/Ascending triangle/descending triangle.

Trend lines.
-----------

GAPS
-----

Indicators
-----------
Moving averages,MACD,RSI,Stochatsics,CCI,ADX,Average True range,Bollinger Bands.

Candle Stick patterns
---------------------
Hammer,Engulfing,Spinning top

all the best.

hey Jagankris , thanks for your info. I have gone through your post above.

In your post about trends both the points a & b are the same. Is it correct or am I missing something?
