Pure Technical Analysis of Alcatel





Part1: Survey of the Analysis Materials



Chapter I:

Classical Analysis provides a good overview of the data for Alcatel, and reveals patterns that will be explored with detail in later sections. See ALA Classical Analysis.

Chapter II:

This survey looks at historical volatility of Alcatel prices. The risks associated with long and short term positions can be evaluated according to projected shapes of the Volatility Curve. See Alcatel Price Volatility.

Chapter III:

Historical Volume Trends are analyzed here, revealing seasonal patterns and the influence of the Business Cycle. See ALA Historical Volume.

Chapter IV:

The Traditional Seasonal Analysis of Price Trends can still yield valuable predictive information. See ALA Seasonal Trends.

Chapter V:

Moving Averages of various flavours are popular indicators. Here we test the predictive ability of different averages as applied to prediction of Alcatel prices. See Running Averages.




Part 2: Technical Analysis Topics



Chapter VI:

Technical Oscillators are compared to test their power as buy or sell signals for speculating in ALA stock. We conduct an extensive investigation of the popular "RSI" of Welles Wilder and some of its variations. See Technical Oscillators

Chapter VII:

A different type of Seasonal Analysis is applied to ALA historical prices. Here the 24 month, November based Political Calendar is the basis for non-standard Seasonal Analysis. See Politics and Prices of ALA.

Chapter VIII:

Volume Stratification Analysis tracks the volumes associated with price levels over the entire history of a stock. The resulting analysis yields a framework for understanding the mechanism behind support and resistance levels, and a scientific basis for predicting price behaviors due to those levels. See Volumetric Analysis

Chapter IX:

Analysis of Market Momentum as the product of Price and Volume drives an interpretation considerably more sophisticated than those that consider Price Momentum alone. See Momentum Investing Indicators.

Chapter X:

Technical Analysis discovers the range of moods of investors toward ALA. See Market Sentiment.

Chapter XI:

The chapter first converts the Price Line to several different mappings based on "Runs" or the number of consecutive price movements in a particular direction. A discussion of the "Monte Carlo Fallacy" and it's relevance to Stock Price Prediction leads to a revisionist method of Price Projection using the Bernoulli Analysis. See Bernoulli Analysis of Alcatel

Chapter XII:

The traditional techniques of Candlestick Analysis may seem fanciful, but certain aspects are firmly grounded in the science of Investor Psychology. See Candlestick Analysis.

Chapter XIII:

Multi-spectral analysis reveals behavioral features of ALA prices that may not be apparent to ordinary analysis. See Multi-Spectral Analysis.

Chapter XIV:

The combination of multi-spectral and mult-dimensional analysis of Alcatel historical trends, yields a rich set of behavioral surfaces. See Price Behavior Surfaces.




Part 3: Synthesis and Projections for the Future



Chapter XVI:

Forecasts are gathered from several sources to predict future price movements. See ALA Price Predictions.
