Technical Analysis (TA) vs. Fundamental Analysis (FA)

Weekly AMA on Instagram - Ask me anything about trading & investing, stock picks, market analysis, etc!

For many new traders, one of the most common question I get is regarding the method of analysis to use, and it usually boils down to technical analysis vs fundamental analysis.

Technical Analysis (TA) gives you a fast and simple way to scan through data, find good opportunities, and make a trading decision.

Fundamental Analysis (FA) helps you understand the big picture and why prices are moving in certain ways.

Personally, I find that the best approach is to combine them to get the best of both worlds.
