Fundamental Analysis

Fundamental Analysis is simply the process of identifying and understanding the "factual reasons" why the market is moving in the direction that it is currently moving within the overall trend over the long term. This is in contrast to identifying that a trend or price move has already happened which is the job of Technical Analysis. Technical Analysis is backward-looking at past prices while Fundamental Analysis is forward-looking and allows you to use current information to try and predict where prices might go in the near future.

Fundamental Analysis is an extremely underserved subject when it comes to retail traders and how they obtain their trading knowledge. Whereas Technical Analysis uses past prices and indicators based on past prices, Fundamental Analysis uses past market information to try and predict the future direction of prices. This past market information is what the big banks and hedge funds use to make their trading decisions and these are the people that have the money to move prices so it makes sense for us retail traders to understand how they are looking at the markets.

In this Wiki, we will explore all the various aspects of Fundamental Analysis including:

• What Fundamental Analysis is
• Objection to Fundamentals
• The differences between institutional and retail traders
• Sentiment Analysis
• Central Banks
• Economic Data Releases
• Fundamental Supply and Demand
• Intermarket Analysis
• Economic Cycles
• And so much more...
