Fundamental analysis vs Technical analysis and growth vs Value investing?*

Answer 1

Make sound judgements using fundamental analysis, then back up your descisions with technical analysis. To make bug money you have to take big risks. Leverage can increase your potential profit/loss.

Answer 2

What a great question...You could fill a library on opinions on this question alone. In my view if you are in it for the long haul, it simply depends on what you're comfortable with and what works for you. The important thing is to create your own personal investment strategy which you clearly understand and can implement efficiently and diligently. I use fundamental analysis but that's only because that's what I'm comfortable with and certainly don't think it's a better strategy then technical anlysis....I know a lot of people who could care less about fundamentals and are dedicated chartists who do extremely well...I just don't have the ability or maybe the guts to do it....As far as value vs. growth I think you need some of both in your portfolio and should weight each accordingly depending on macroeconomic factors that tend to favor one or the other at certain periods in the naturally economic cycles we go through.

Answer 3

The market price reflects what the market participants feel about the stock or commodity.
To be able to make a picture of the trend it is important to have a technical approach.
All fundamental events are also reflected in the charts.
If you do your homework on technical analyzes, and have a good strategy for entries and exits, you will gain great freedom and sleep good every night regardless of what markets you are in.
Be aware of gaping in the less liquid markets.
Also a fundamental release in the after hours of the stock market, can cause a gap in the opening price the next day. This may cause a loss greater than what you had set your stop loss for. Orion Trading has a free introduction course to technical analyzes on their website. They also have an advanced course for traders which have a desire to develop their own strategy.

Answer 4

I trade Futures and rely heavily on Technical analysis which I back up with fundamentals and a dash of common sense. You can get good educational materials at http://www.genphn.com. To make big money learn to control your losses; remember that you can forecast how much you can lose (through risk management techniques) but you cannot forecast (with a high degree of accuracy) your gains. Make sure that the win side of your win loss ratio is the larger number.

Answer 5

Fundamentals probably win hands down...you've got to judge each company by how they are handling the business... and the fundamentals are your scorecard.
The tech anaysis treats all companies the same and seem to imply that if this happens, then that happens, charts and patterns don't necessarily take into consideration a sudden popularity of something, an increase in production cost, a loss of a contract....business occurences like that.....
Value= safest...Growth=bucks.....find a balance, depends on what your risking.......IRA ? go safe...... last years profits ? risk a little.
