Technical Analysis Syllabus

Course focus: Beginner → Advanced, with strong emphasis on Relative Strength (RS), Momentum Investing, and practical use of Indian tools (TradingView, StockEdge, Screener.in, Tijori Finance, Trendlyne).

Key design choice: Delivery (delivery/positional & swing trades / investing for holding) is given higher importance than short-term volume-chasing. This course is built for retail Indian investors who want to build wealth — not for intraday gambling or option quick bets.

Course Overview

Duration: 6 months

Total classes: 25 (2 hours each)

DETAILED SYLLABUS (Class-Wise)

Module 1 — Foundations & Charting

Goal: Build a strong base — charts, platform basics, and basic candlesticks.
  • Definition, assumptions, market cycles, difference vs fundamental analysis.

  • Assignment: Pattern journal — 2 weeks observation.

Module 2 — Trend, Support & Moving Averages

Goal: Trend identification, support/resistance, moving averages for trend-following.
  • Uptrend/downtrend/sideways; higher highs/lows; structure breaks.
  • Indian example: Sector rotation visualization (e.g., Auto vs Pharma).
  • Horizontal zones vs dynamic zones; role of round numbers, previous gaps, pivot points.
  • Exercise: Build S/R heatmap for a chosen stock using TradingView & StockEdge.
  • How to draw valid trendlines/channels; avoid overfitting. Use multiple timeframes.
  • Practical: Draw and validate channels on weekly charts.
  • Interpretation, crossover strategies, MA ribbons, MA as dynamic S/R. Use 20/50/100/200.
  • Tool use: Apply MA templates in TradingView; alerts.

Module 3 — Volume, Delivery Data & Price Action

Goal: Teach how to confirm market moves using volume + delivery data, understand genuine accumulation/distribution, and combine with price action & market internals for delivery/positional trading.
  • Difference between Traded Volume vs Delivery Quantity / Delivery %.
  • How to interpret delivery % with price moves (accumulation, distribution, speculative churn).
  • Rules of thumb: Delivery % > 40% with rising price = strong accumulation.
  • Practical demo: NSE data + StockEdge scanners (delivery % trends).
  • Assignment: Track delivery % for 5 stocks over 1 month and compare with price moves.
  • Candlestick rejection wicks, retests, false breakouts.
  • Use delivery % to filter genuine vs false breakouts.
  • Example: Cup & Handle breakout with high delivery % vs low-delivery fake moves.
  • Practical: Live chart reading with delivery overlays (TradingView + StockEdge).
  • Understanding FIIs/DIIs flows and sector rotation.
  • Intermarket analysis: equities, commodities, currencies (as per Murphy’s framework).

  • Use delivery + volume data to confirm institutional accumulation in sectors.
  • ATR (Average True Range) for stop-loss placement and risk management.
  • Bollinger Bands for volatility squeeze/breakouts (with delivery confirmation).
  • Use ATR on delivery/momentum stocks to plan stop distance and position size.
  • Exercise: Calculate ATR-based stop for 3 delivery trades (mid-cap & large-cap).

Module 4 — Indicators & Oscillators

Goal: Understand and apply common indicators; emphasise RS vs RSI distinction.

  • Overbought/oversold, divergences, RSI timeframes, use cases in India.

  • Exercise: Spot RSI divergence on top 10 movers of last 3 months.

  • MACD lines and histogram, crossovers, using MACD with trend.
  • Squeeze concept, breakout trades, mean-reversion opportunities.

  • What is RS vs RSI: RS (relative performance) = stock vs benchmark (NIFTY / sector) — not oscillator. Use weekly & monthly RS.

  • How to compute: (Price ratio method / slope method / RS line).

  • Practical: Create RS line in TradingView / StockEdge — compare two stocks vs NIFTY.

  • Assignment: Build an RS ranking of 50 stocks using Screener.in/Trendlyne/StockEdge.

  • Use for Indian investors: comparing funds/stocks, combining with RS to avoid high-volatility traps.
