Technical analysis views the actual history of trading and the price of the share or index.

A chart is used for this purpose. A technical analyst proceeds on the belief that securities move in trends. Such trends continue until something happens to change the trend. With this approach sometimes the analysis could be wrong and patterns and levels can not be detected properly. But such an eventuality is rare. In majority of the cases, the analysis is right.
