What does a technical analyst do?
Gathers and interprets statistical data to anticipate market moves.
What data is analyzed? How are trading systems
maintained?
Trading programs are continuously
tracked for performance. Underperforming models are
discontinued, and new models may be created.
How do we measure the trading
programs?
The research department of Appel Financial tests conceptual systems for
consistency of return under various market climates. Once a model passes rigorous
statistical tests, it is adopted for general use. |

systems developed?
