Institutional Traders and Technical Analysis

As mentioned above, institutional traders focus more on-demand/supply metrics than


to the traditional technical analysis tools and techniques. Nevertheless, there are
a few indicators worth mentioning:

(1) Market Momentum

The market momentum can indicate the continuation of a strong trend based on
demand/supply. Identifying fundamental changes and following the market momentum in
the early stages maximizes the odds of trading profitably.

(2) Historic Support & Resistance

It may indicate the participation of new buyers or new sellers. In general, these
price levels include:

Key Previous Highs & Lows


Pivot points (Weekly, Monthly)
Round Numbers
Price Channels (on Weekly Charts)
(3) The 200-day moving average

Breaking upwards or downwards the 200-day SMA can prove a strong alert for a price
reversal. Given, this crossing meets the criteria of proper confirmation by time
and price.

(4) VWAP - Volume Weighted Average Price

VWAP is a ratio used in equity trading measuring the value traded to total volume
traded over a particular timeframe -usually one day.
