Pure Technical Analysis of PetroCanada





Part1: An Overview of the Analysis



Chapter I:

The Classical Analysis of Time Series establishes a good starting point in the analysis, and provides a high vantage point for viewing patterns of behaviour in the prices over the entire history of PetroCanada. See PCZ 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 PetroCanada Price Volatility.

Chapter III:

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

Chapter IV:

A look at Traditional Seasonal Analysis of PetroCanada Historical Prices identifies the best and worst months to be invested. See PCZ 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 PetroCanada prices. See Running Averages.




Part 2: Technical Analysis Topics



Chapter VI:

Some say that modern analysis began with the successful identification of technical oscillators such as the highly effective Wilder RSI. See Technical Oscillators

Chapter VII:

This chapter takes a view somewhat similar to standard analysis of seasonal trends, but it is based on the 4 year or 2 year Political Calendar rather than the 1 year Standard Calendar. Political Seasons work better than Calendar Seasons for predicting prices of many companies. See Politics and Prices of PCZ.

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 PCZ. See Market Sentiment.

Chapter XI:

This section visualizes mappings based on 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 PetroCanada

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 PCZ 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 PetroCanada historical trends, yields a rich set of behavioral surfaces. See Price Behavior Surfaces.
