Pure Technical Analysis of General Motors





Part1: An Overview of the Analysis



Chapter I:

This look at General Motors begins with a Classical Time Series Analysis of the historical stock prices, providing a vantage point over patterns that will be explored in greater detail in the following chapters. See GM Classical Analysis.

Chapter II:

Risks associated with short and long period price changes can be understood through Volatility Analysis. Here the impact of the Volatility Curve on the potential profitability positions across different time spans is shown. See General Motors Price Volatility.

Chapter III:

This section shows historical volumes for sales of GM stock, along with Seasonal and Cyclical Trends in Volume. See GM Historical Volume.

Chapter IV:

The Traditional Seasonal Analysis of Price Trends can still yield valuable predictive information. See GM 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 General Motors prices. See Running Averages.




Part 2: Traditional Analysis Topics



Chapter VI:

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

Chapter VII:

Price Analysis according to Political Factors reveals some surprising results. Computing trends against the November based political calendar may give better predictions than the traditional calculations based on the January calendar year! See Politics and Prices of GM.

Chapter VIII:

A sophisticated method associates price levels with historical volumes. Such semi-abstract concepts as Support and Resistance may then be defined with mathematical precision. See Volumetric Analysis

Chapter IX:

A view of Momentum Analysis that takes Volume into account as well as Price. See Momentum Investing Indicators.

Chapter X:

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

Chapter XI:

The length of "Runs", (the number of consecutive price movements up or down) reveal some new ways to visualize Price Series Data. 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 General Motors

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:

Ordinary analysis does not show the features of the behavioral history underneath the price volume line. Here multi-spectral analysis brings the hidden features to the surface. See Multi-Spectral Analysis.

Chapter XIV:

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




Part 3: Advanced Forecasting Topics



Chapter XVI:

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