The document discusses technical analysis and its use in making investment decisions. It begins by explaining that technical analysis differs from fundamental analysis in that it only considers price movements and trends rather than a company's underlying value.
The key assumptions of technical analysis are then outlined: 1) the market discounts all known information, 2) price trends tend to persist, and 3) historical price patterns tend to repeat. Several technical analysis tools and indicators are discussed that are used to identify trends and predict future price movements based on these assumptions.
The objectives and scope of studying technical analysis are to help generate profitable buy and sell signals in both the short-term and long-term using technical indicators and identify market trends and turning points. A

The methods used to analyze securities and make investment decisions fall into two very broad categories, fundamental analysis and technical analysis. Fundamental analysis involves analyzing the characteristics of a company in order to estimate its value. Technical analysis takes a completely different approach, it doesn't care about the "value" of a company or a commodity. Technicians (sometimes called chartists) are only interested in the price movements in the market. Despite all the fancy and exotic tools it employs, technical analysis really just studies supply and demand in a market in an attempt to determine what direction, or trend, will continue in the future. In other words, technical analysis attempts to understand the emotions in the market by studying the market itself, as opposed to its components. If you understand the benefits and limitations of technical analysis, it can give you a new set of tools or skills that will enable you to be a better trader or investor.
The field of technical analysis is based on three assumptions: 1. The market discounts everything. 2. Price moves in trends. 3. History tends to repeat itself.

1. The market discounts everything: A major criticism of technical analysis is that it only considers price movement, ignoring the fundamental factors of the company. However, technical analysis assumes that, at any given time, a stock's price reflects everything that has or could affect the company - including fundamental factors. Technical analysts believe that the company's fundamentals, along with broader economic factors and market psychology, are all priced into the stock, removing the need to actually consider these factors separately. This only leaves the analysis of price movement, which technical theory views as a product of the supply and demand for a particular stock in the market. 1. Price moves in trends: In technical analysis, price movements are believed to follow trends. This means that after a trend has been established, the future price movement is more likely to be in the same direction as the trend than to be against it. Most technical trading strategies are based on this assumption. 2. History tends to repeat itself: Another important idea in technical analysis is that history tends to repeat itself, mainly in terms of price movement. The repetitive nature of price movements is attributed to market psychology; in other words, market participants tend to provide a consistent reaction to similar market stimuli over time. Technical analysis uses chart patterns to analyze market movements and understand trends.

1.2 Need for study The share price movement is analyzed broadly with two approaches, namely, fundamental approach and the technical approach. Fundamental approach analyses the share price on the basis of economic, industry and company statistics. If the price of the share is lower than its intrinsic value, investor buys the share. But, if he finds the price of the share higher than the intrinsic value, he sells and gets profit. The technical analyst mainly studies the stock price movements of the security market. If there is an uptrend in the price movement investor may purchase the scrip. With the onset of fall in price he may sell it and move from the scrip. Basically, technical analyst and the fundamental analyst aim at good return on investment.Technical analysis is a very important to know stock market trend, breath, strength of trend same apply for individual stock also. 1. To make a big money in stock market it is necessary to know stock market trend and strength of the trend. For any stock, ETF or penny stocks before to trade if you know the trend and strength that make a really big difference in your trading approach. 2. After doing good study of technical indicators you can easily identify stock market trend, trend reversal, and major top or major bottom 3. Technical analysis is just like weather forecast. When you today there is more chance for rain then before to go out from your house you prepare for rain. Same way technical analysis gives that guide for stock trading, day trading or long term investment. 4
1.3 Objectives of the study
To understand the concept of Technical analysis. To know about various indicators and tools used in technical analysis. To study how the indicators help to predict the future of a stock. To identify various factors that influences the behavior of global market, Indian market and the behavior of the stocks. To generate long and short positions using the indicators. To offer suggestions based on my findings.

1.4 Scope of the study It is the process of identifying trend reversals at an earlier stage to formulate the buying and selling strategy. With the help of several technical indicators they analyze the relationship between price volume and supply demand for overall market and the individual stocks.

1.5 Research methodology Research design For the present study the research design is drafted as giving buy and sell calls for the intraday traders and short term investors. The period for short term investors is 15 to 30 days. The intraday calls and positional calls are generated by using some of the technical indicators like Candle Sticks, Relative Strength Index, Moving Average Convergence Divergence, Volumes, Simple Moving Averages, and Crossovers. Data collection The various sources for data collection include websites and stock exchange. Primary data and secondary data are collected for this research. The graphs for intraday calls are obtained by online trading application Power Indiabulls (PIB) and graphs for positional calls are collected from websites.

Review of literature Article 1 : Title: An alternative test for weak form efficiency based on technical analysis. Author : Elaine Y. L. Loh Journal Financial economies Volume 17, year 2007, issue 12, pages1003 - 1012 This study suggests a test for weak form efficiency based on the analysts approach to technical analysis. In the previous days those studies make implications on weak form efficiency based on the empirical results of testing only one class of trend indicators. On the other hand the analysts typically involve the use of trend indicators simultaneously with the other confirming indicators because trend indicators do not sufficiently capture the information content in past prices. By combining trend indicators with confirming other technical indicators and are also based on the past practices. The patterns and rules suggested by the analysts using technical indicators are applied on five of the Asian-Pacific markets, the result obtained suggests that a test for weak form efficiency based solely on trend indicators is ineffective than the alternative test proposed in this study. An examination of weak form efficiency based on this alternative test suggests that weak form efficiency is determined by factors other than technological progress.

Article 2 : Title : Emerging Markets and Stock Market Bubbles: Nonlinear
Author : Ehsan Ahmed, J. Barkley Rosser Jr., and Jamshed .Y Journal Emerging Markets Finance And Trade Volume 46, year 2010, pages 23 - 40 The article displays different methods are used to test the absence of excessively rapid movements of price movements in daily stock market indices in 27 emerging market economies from the early 1990s through 2006. The absences of nonlinearities beyond autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (ARCH) effects are also tested. Daily returns of stock markets in emerging markets in Asia, Africa, South America, and Eastern Europe from the early 1990s through 2006 are analyzed for the possible presence of nonlinear speculative bubbles. The absence of these is tested for by studying residuals of vector autoregressivebased fundamentals, using the Hamilton regime switching model and the rescaled range analysis of Hurst. For the first test, absence of bubbles is rejected for twenty-four countries (except Mexico, Sri Lanka, and Taiwan), for the second test, it is rejected for 26 countries (except Malaysia). BDS testing on these residuals after autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (ARCH) effects are removed fails to reject further nonlinearity (except for Israel). Policy issues are discussed, noting that what is appropriate varies from country to country and time period to time period. 9
Theoretical Problems of Speculative bubbles has been to identify it as a price of an asset staying away from the fundamental value of the asset for some extended period of time.

Article 3 : Title : Frequency of Corporate Announcements via Stock Exchange Web Sites and Market Efficiency Authors : Asheq Rahman, Roger Debreceny Journal : Exchange of accounting, auditing, finance Volume: 25, pages 457 - 490 The Online trading softwares setup by the brokerages and the platform set up by their online trading applications of the brokerages have been creating a well organized environment for the clients to trade and invest. Continuous corporate reporting is gaining prominence in the current real- time reporting environment. This has added a new dimension to corporate reporting, the frequency with which firms report their material information. This article tells about the impact of frequency of online material information disclosures on market efficiency. The measure of frequency of online material information disclosures is the monthly frequency of corporate announcements via stock exchange Web sites. It is found that the frequency of announcements is positively associated with returns and volume metrics and negatively associated with bid-ask spread. We infer from the results that the frequency of material online disclosures has a beneficial impact on market efficiency.

Article 4 : Title : Product Market Competition, Insider Trading and Stock Market Efficiency Author : Joel Peress Journal of Finance Volume: 65, pages 1 - 43 The competition of products of different firms in the stock market is influencing the behavior of equity markets, the situation examined shows that the product market imperfections may spread to equity markets. The author explains these concepts in the article saying, How does competition in firms product markets influence their behavior in equity markets? Do product market imperfections spread to equity markets? These questions are increasingly of interest as product markets are becoming more competitive in many countries. Firms use their monopoly power to pass on shocks to customers, thereby insulating their profits. This encourages stock trading, expedites the capitalization of private information into stock prices and improves the allocation of capital. Several implications are derived and tested. In this paper, the author analyzed that these questions using a noisy rational expectations model in which firms operate under monopolistic competition while their shares trade in perfectly competitive markets. The model is guided by recent empirical work showing that stock returns are affected by the intensity of product market competition. Gaspar and Massa (2005) and Irvine and 12
Pontiff (2009) document that more competitive firms have more volatile idiosyncratic returns, and Hou and Robinson (2006) show that such firms earn higher risk-adjusted returns.

Article 5 : Title : Stock Market Declines and Liquidity. Authors : Hameed, Allaudeen Kang, Wenjin Viswanathan Journal of Finance Volume 65 issue 1 pages 257 - 293 The different trends of stock markets the declining trend, the rising trend, the reversal trend and the trends some cause effect of illiquidity are considered to be important. Liquidity dry-ups are argued to occur because market participants engage in panic selling (a demand effect), financial intermediaries withdraw from providing liquidity (a supply effect), or both. In this paper, the work done is on what happens to market liquidity after large market declines and whether supply effects exist in equity markets. Consistent with recent theoretical models where binding capital constraints lead to sudden liquidity dry-ups, we find that negative market returns decrease stock liquidity, especially during times of tightness in the funding market. The asymmetric effect of changes in aggregate asset values on liquidity and commonality in liquidity cannot be fully explained by changes in demand for liquidity or volatility effects. The research brought up the economically significant returns to supplying liquidity following periods of large drops in market valuations.

Article 6 : Title : Stock Market Mispricing: Money Illusion or Resale Option? Authors : Carl R. Chen, Peter P. Lung, and F. Albert Wang Journal of Finance and quantitative analysts Volume 44 year 2009 pages 1125 - 1147 The Stock Market mispricing the very happening thing in the stock market, the reason for this cannot be assumed as one particular one the money illusion or resale option or any other. In this article these two reasons are focused and made clear to understand. Here in the article two hypothesis are used to explain stock mispricing: i) the money illusion hypothesis (Modigliani and Cohn (1979)) and ii) the resale option hypothesis (Scheinkman and Xiong (2003)). We find that the money illusion hypothesis may explain the level, but not the Volatility of mispricing in the U.S. market. In contrast, the stock resale option hypothesis, which stems from heterogeneous beliefs about future dividend growth rates and short-sale constraints, can explain both the level and the volatility of mispricing. The evidence suggests that while the two hypotheses complement each other in explaining the level of mispricing, the resale option hypothesis provides a more coherent explanation for asset price bubbles, in which extraordinarily high price levels are often accompanied by excessive volatility and frenzied trading.

Article 7 : Title : Tests of Technical Analysis in India Authors : Sanjay Sehgal and Meenakshi Gupta Journal of business Volume 11 year 2007 issue 3 pages 11 22 The study evaluates the economic feasibility of technical analysis in the Indian stock market. It discusses that technical indicators do not outperform simple Buy and Hold strategy on net return basis for individual stocks. Technical indicators seem to do better during market upturns compared to market downturns. However, technical based trading strategies are not feasible vis--vis passive strategy irrespective of market cycle conditions. Technical indicators also do not provide economically significant profit for industry as well as economy based data. Combining fundamentals with technical information, we find, that technical indicators are more profitable for small stocks compared to big stocks and for high value stocks compared to low value stocks. However, the economic feasibility of fundamentals based technical strategies is still questionable. Our results seem to confirm with the efficient market hypothesis.

Article 8 : Title : The Role of the Media in the Internet IPO Bubble. Authors : Bhattacharya, Utpal 1 Galpin, Neal , Ray, Rina, Yu, Xiaoyun Journal of Finance and quantitative analyst Volume 44 issue 03 year 2009 pages 657 - 682
Internet has brought greater improvement in the concept of online trading, the introducing of IPO has become much easier by online trading platform by the brokerage companies. People are aware of the news items that came out between 1996 and 2000 on 458 Internet initial public offerings (IPOs) and a matching sample of 458 non- Internet IPOs (a total of 171,488 news items) and classify each news item as good news, neutral news, or bad news. The information is first documented that the media were more positive for Internet IPOs in the period of the dramatic rise in share prices and more negative for Internet IPOs in the period of the dramatic fall in share prices. Then media hype is unable to explain the Internet bubble was documented. A 1,646% difference exists in returns between Internet stocks and non-Internet stocks from January 1, 1997, through March 24, 2000 (the market peak), and the media can explain only 2.9% of that.

Article 9 : Title : Technical indicators: A statistical approach Author : Michael Gutmann The article discusses trading techniques to improve the performance of the futures industry. It mentions that in order to manage one's financial assets, analyzing price and volume data should be practiced. It notes that in trading securities market, relying on time frame indicator and making technical indicators robust are important factors in financial management. The technical analyst seeks tools that are independent of any particular market or time frame. We need to modify your indicators to work with other markets. We just need to make them robust. Some of the best known technical indicators are asset-specific and may not be robust. For example, the well-known and widely used moving average convergence divergence (MACD) indicator outputs the difference between two exponential moving averages, and the moving averages are based on the price of the underlying asset. The most common method of estimating the spread, or dispersion, of a data set is Standard Deviation. The data set's mean, or average, is first calculated. The Greek letter ]i ("mu") stands for the data set's mean value. The data set's standard deviation is then calculated as the average distance of the data points from their mean.

Article 10 : Title : Getting technical with economic data. Author : McCurtain, Robert The article discusses the application of technical analysis to analyze the data in the financial market and the economy. It stresses the distinct role of the technical and the fundamental analysts. It explains how the stock market can be analyzed with a top-down approach with four coincident indicators. Moreover, the exceptions to the rule in looking for linkage between data as well as the importance of considering two separate markets in combining with second fundamental data are expounded. Because of the nature and historical relationship of technical analysis indicators with financial markets data and the tenuous traditional relationship of technicians with fundamental analysts, the latter who study earnings, economic data, and other "non-price-oriented" statistical information, there has always been an intellectual gulf between the two. Technical analysts have tended to assume that fundamental data have already been discounted by the time the numbers become known. Thus, fundamentals have limited value as market timing tools. On the other hand, fundamental analysts claim that fundamental factors drive all prices in the financial markets. The question remains: "Can fundamental data be used to help with market timing decisions?"

3.1 Industry profile
Industry overview The securities market achieves one of the most important functions of channeling idle resources to productive resources or from less productive resources to more productive resources. Hence in the broader context the people who save and investors who invest focus more towards the economys abilities to invest and save respectively. This enhances savings and investments in the economy, the two pillars for economic growth. The Indian Capital Market has come a long way in this process and with a strong regulator it has been able to usher an era of a modern capital market regime. The past decade in many ways has been remarkable for securities market in India. It has grown exponentially as measured in terms of amount raised from the market, the number of listed stocks, market capitalization, trading volumes and turnover on stock exchanges, and investor population. The market has witnessed fundamental institutional changes resulting in drastic reduction in transaction costs and significant improvements in efficiency, transparency and safety. Stock exchange A stock exchange, share market or bourse is a corporation or mutual organization which provides facilities for stock brokers and traders, to trade company stocks and other securities. Stock exchanges also provide facilities for the issue and redemption of securities, as well as, other financial instruments and capital events including the payment of income and dividends. The securities 20
traded on a stock exchange include shares issued by companies, unit trusts and other pooled investment products and bonds. To be able to trade a security on a certain stock exchange, it has to be listed there. Usually there is a central location at least for recordkeeping, but trade is less and less linked to such a physical place, as modern markets are electronic networks, which gives them advantages of speed and cost of transactions. Trade on an exchange is by members only. The initial offering of stocks and bonds to investors is by definition done in the primary market and subsequent trading is done in the secondary market. A stock exchange is often the most important component of a stock market. Supply and demand in stock a market is driven by various factors which, as in all free markets, affect the price of stocks. There is usually no compulsion to issue stock via the stock exchange itself, nor must stock be subsequently traded on the exchange. Such trading is said to be off exchange or over-the-counter. This is the usual way that bonds are traded. Increasingly, stock exchanges are part of a global market for securities. History of stock exchanges In 12th century France courtier de change were concerned with managing and regulating the debts of agricultural communities on behalf of the banks. As these men also traded in debts, they could be called the first brokers. Some stories suggest that the origins of the term "bourse" come from the Latin bursa meaning a bag because, in 13th century Bruges, the sign of a purse (or perhaps three purses), hung on the front of the house where merchants met. 21
However, it is more likely that in the late 13th century commodity traders in Bruges gathered inside the house of a man called Van der Burse, and in 1309 they institutionalized this until now informal meeting and became the "Bruges Bourse". The idea spread quickly around Flanders and neighboring counties and "Bourses" soon opened in Ghent and Amsterdam. In the middle of the 13th century, Venetian bankers began to trade in government securities. In 1351, the Venetian Government outlawed spreading rumors intended to lower the price of government funds. There were people in Pisa, Verona, Genoa and Florence who also began trading in government securities during the 14th century. This was only possible because these were independent city states ruled by a council of Influential citizens, not by a duke. The Dutch later started joint stock companies, which let shareholders invest in business ventures and get a share of their profits - or losses. In 1602, the Dutch East India Company issued the first shares on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange. It was the first company to issue stocks and bonds. In 1688, the trading of stocks began on a stock exchange in London Stock Exchange. The role of stock exchanges: Stock exchanges have multiple roles in the economy, this may include the following: Raising capital for businesses The Stock Exchange provides companies with the facility to raise capital 22
for expansion through selling shares to the investing public. Mobilizing savings for investment When people draw their savings and invest in shares, it leads to a more rational allocation of resources because funds, which could have been consumed, or kept in idle deposits with banks, are mobilized and redirected to promote business activity with benefits for several economic sectors such as agriculture, commerce and industry, resulting in a stronger economic growth and higher productivity levels. Facilitating company growth Companies view acquisitions as an opportunity to expand product lines, increase distribution channels, hedge against volatility, increase its market share, or acquire other necessary business assets. A takeover bid or a merger agreement through the stock exchange is one of the simplest and most common ways for a company to grow by acquisition or fusion. Redistribution of wealth Stocks exchanges do not exist to redistribute wealth although casual and professional stock investors through stock prices increases (that may result in capital gains for the Investor) and dividends get a chance to share in the wealth of profitable businesses. 23
Corporate governance By having a wide and varied scope of owners, companies generally tend to improve on their management standards and efficiency in order to satisfy the demands of these shareholders and the more stringent rules for public corporations imposed by public stock exchanges and the government. Consequently, it is alleged that public companies (companies that are owned by shareholders who are members of the general public and trade shares on public exchanges) tend to have better management records than privately held companies (those companies where shares are not publicly traded, often owned by the company founders and/or their families and heirs, or otherwise by a small group of investors). However, some well-documented cases are known where it is alleged that there has been considerable slippage in corporate governance on the part of some public companies (pets.com (2000), Enron corporation (2001), One.tel (2001), Sunbeam (2001), Webvan (2001), Adelphia (2002), Mci world com (2002), or paramalat(2003), are among the most widely scrutinized by the media). Creating investment opportunities for small investos As opposed to other businesses that require huge capital outlay, investing in shares is open to both the large and small stock investors because a person buys the number of shares they can afford. Therefore the Stock Exchange provides the opportunity for small investors to own shares of the same companies as large investors. 24
Government capital-raising for development projects Governments at various levels may decide to borrow money in order to finance infrastructure projects such as sewage and water treatment works or housing estates by selling another category of securities known as bonds. These bonds can be raised through the Stock Exchange whereby members of the public buy them, thus loaning money to the government. The issuance of such municipal bonds can obviate the need to directly tax the citizens in order to finance development, although by securing such bonds with the full faith and credit of the government instead of with collateral, the result is that the Government must tax the citizens or otherwise raise additional funds to make any regular coupon payments and refund the principal when the bonds mature. Barometer of the economy At the stock exchange, share prices rise and fall depending, largely, on market forces. Share prices tend to rise or remain stable when companies and the economy in general show signs of stability and growth. An economic recession, depression, or financial crisis could eventually lead to a stock market crash. Therefore the movement of share prices and in general of the stock indexes can be an indicator of the general trend in the economy.

Stock exchange & shares The market or place, where securities, viz. shares are exchanged/traded or simply where buying and selling takes place, is called stock exchange or stock market. Presently, the stock market in India consists of twenty three regional stock exchanges and two national exchanges, namely, the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) is the largest Stock Exchange, in the country, where maximum transactions, in terms of money and shares take place. The other major stock exchanges are Calcutta, Madras and Delhi Stock Exchanges. Other one at Ahmadabad, Jaipur, Bangalore, Kanpur, Rajkot, Hyderabad, Cochin, Pune, Bhubaneswar, Guwahati, Indore, Mangalore, Ludhiana, Patna, Saurashtra, Vadodara, Coimbatore, Meerut, and Surat. Functioning of stock exchange Listing: Listing of shares, on a stock exchange, means, such shares can be bought and sold, in stock exchange. A Company, which intends to issue shares, through prospectus, shall have to apply to one or more stock exchanges, for getting its shares listed. The detailed and elaborate procedure of getting the shares listed on a stock exchange is monitored by SEBI. The SEBI, issues guidelines and notifications, from time to time, with regard to listing of securities
27
Once the shares are listed, they are divided into two categories: 1. GROUP A SHARES 2. GROUP "B" SHARES
Group "A" Shares are referred to as Cleaned Securities or specified shares". The facility for carrying forward a transaction from one account period to another is available for these shares. Group "A" shares represent companies, with huge amount of capital, and equally a large scope for investment. These shares are frequently traded and command higher price earnings multiples. Group "B" Shares are referred to as none cleaned securities or non-specified shares. For these groups facility of carrying forward is not available. Whenever a share is moved from Group "B" to Group "A" its market price rises, likewise, when a share is shifted from Group "A" to Group "B", its market price declines. There are some criteria and guide lines, laid down by stock exchange, for shifting stocks from the non-specified list to the specified list. Primary market Since 1991/92, the primary market has grown fast as a result of the removal of investment restrictions in the overall economy and a repeal of the restrictions imposed by the Capital Issues Control Act. In 1991/92, Rs62.15 billion was raised in the primary market. This figure rose to Rs276.21 billion in 1994/95. Since 1995/1996, however, smaller amounts have been raised due to the overall downtrend in the market and tighter entry barriers introduced by SEBI for investor protection .SEBI has taken several measures to improve the integrity of 28
the secondary market. Legislative and regulatory changes have facilitated the corporatization of stockbrokers. Capital adequacy norms have been prescribed and are being enforced. A mark-to-market margin and intraday trading limit have also been imposed. Further, the stock exchanges have put in place circuit breakers, which are applied in times of excessive volatility. The disclosure of short sales and long purchases is now required at the end of the day to reduce price volatility and further enhance the integrity of the secondary market. The primary is that part of the capital markets that deals with the issuance of new securities. Companies, governments or public sector institutions can obtain funding through the sale of a new stock or bond issue. This is typically done through a syndicate of securities dealers. The process of selling new issues to investors is called underwriting. In the case of a new stock issue, this sale is an initial public offering (IPO). Dealers earn a commission that is built into the price of the security offering, though it can be found in the prospectus. Features of primary market 1. This is the market for new long term capital. The primary market is the market where the securities are sold for the first time. Therefore it is also called New Issue Market (NIM). 2. In a primary issue, the securities are issued by the company directly to investors. 3. The company receives the money and issue new security certificates to the investors 29
4. Primary issues are used by companies for the purpose of setting up new business or for expanding or modernizing the existing business. 5. The primary market performs the crucial function of facilitating capital formation in the economy. 6. The new issue market does not include certain other sources of new long term external finance, such as loans from financial institutions. Borrowers in the new issue market may be raising capital for converting private capital into public capital; this is known as going public. Methods of issuing securities in the primary market 1. Initial Public Offer, 2. Rights Issue (For existing Companies) and 3. Preferential Issue Secondary market The secondary market is the financial market for trading of securities that have already been issued in an initial private or public offering. Alternatively, secondary market can refer to the market for any kind of used goods. The market that exists in a new security just after the new issue is often referred to as the aftermarket. Once a newly issued stock is listed on a stock exchange, investors and speculators can easily trade on the exchange, as market makers provide bids and offers in the new stock. Function In the secondary market, securities are sold by and transferred from one investor or speculator to another. It is therefore important that the secondary 30
market be highly liquid (Originally, the only way to create this liquidity was for investors and speculators to meet at a fixed place regularly. This is how stock exchanges originated; see History of the Stock Exchange). Secondary marketing is vital to an efficient and modern capital market. Fundamentally, secondary markets mesh the investor's preference for liquidity (i.e., the investor's desire not to tie up his or her money for a long period of time, in case the investor needs it to deal with unforeseen circumstances) with the capital user's preference to be able to use the capital for an extended period of time. For example, a traditional loan allows the borrower to pay back the loan, with interest, over a certain period. For the length of that period of time, the bulk of the lender's investment is inaccessible to the lender, even in cases of emergencies. Likewise, in an emergency, a partner in a traditional partnership is only able to access his or her original investment if he or she finds another investor willing to buy out his or her interest in the partnership. With a securitized loan or equity interest (such as bonds) or tradable stocks, the investor can sell, relatively easily, his or her interest in the investment, particularly if the loan or ownership equity has been broken into relatively small parts. This selling and buying of small parts of a larger loan or ownership interest in a venture is called secondary market trading. Under traditional lending and partnership arrangements, investors may be less likely to put their money into long-term investments, and more likely to charge a higher interest rate if they do.
31
Private equity secondary market In finance, the private equity secondary market (also often called private equity secondary or secondary) refers to the buying and selling of pre-existing investor commitments to private equity and other alternative investment funds. Sellers of private equity investments sell not only the investments in the fund but also their remaining unfunded commitments to the funds. By its nature, the private equity asset class is illiquid, intended to be a long-term investment for buy-and-hold investors. For the vast majority of private equity investments, there is no listed public market; however there is a robust and maturing secondary market available for sellers of private equity assets. Driven by strong demand for private equity exposure, a significant amount of capital has been committed to dedicated secondary market funds from investors looking to increase and diversify their private equity exposure Laws governing capital market: The four main legislations governing the securities market are: (a) The SEBI Act, 1992 which establishes SEBI to protect investors and develop and Regulate the Markets. (b) The Companies Act, 1956, which sets out the code of conduct for the corporate sector in relation to issue, allotment and transfer of securities, and disclosures to be made in public issues. 32
(c) The Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956, read with the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Rules, 1957 which provide for regulation of transactions in securities through control over stock exchanges; and (d) The Depositories Act, 1996 which provides for electronic maintenance and transfer of ownership of demat securities. Regulators SEBI is the primary regulator of the Securities Market and the entities operating therein. The SEBI Act and the Depositories Act are mostly administered by SEBI. The rules under the securities laws are framed by government and regulations by SEBI. All these are administered by SEBI. The powers under the Companies Act relating to issue and transfer of securities and non-payment of dividend are administered by SEBI in case of listed public companies and public companies proposing to get their securities listed Market value The current quoted price at which investors buy or sell a share of common stock or a bond at a given time. Also known as "market price The market capitalization plus the market value of debt. Sometimes referred to as "total market value". In the context of securities, market value is often different from book value because the market takes into account future growth potential. Most investors who use fundamental analysis to pick stocks look at a company's market value and then determine whether or not the market value is 33
adequate or if it's undervalued in comparison to its book value, net assets or some other measure. Stock A type of security that signifies ownership in a corporation and represents a claim on part of the corporations assets and earnings. There are two main types of stock common and preferred. Common stock usually entitles the owner to vote at shareholders' meetings and to receive dividends. Preferred stock generally does not have voting rights, but has a higher claim on assets and earnings than the common shares. For example, owners of preferred stock receive dividends before common shareholders and have priority in the event that a company goes bankrupt or when liquidated, also known as "shares" or "equity". A holder of stock (a shareholder) has a claim to a part of the corporation's assets and earnings, in other words, a shareholder is an owner of a company. Ownership is determined by the number of shares a person owns relative to the number of outstanding shares. For example, if a company has 1,000 shares of stock outstanding and one person owns 100 shares, that person would own and have claim to 10% of the companys assets stocks are the foundation of nearly every portfolio. Historically, they have outperformed most other investments over the long run. Share holder Any person, company, or other institution that has own at least 1 share in a company. A shareholder may also be referred to as a stockholder. Shareholders 34
are the owners of a company. They have the potential to profit if the company does well, but that comes with the potential to lose if the company does poorly. Share A unit of ownership interest in a corporation or financial asset. While owning shares in a business does not mean that the shareholder has direct control over the business's day-to-day operations, being a shareholder does entitle the possessor to an equal distribution in any profits, if any are declared in the form of dividends. The two main types of shares are common shares and preferred shares. In the past, shareholders received a physical paper stock certificate that indicated that they owned "x" shares in a company. Today, brokerages have electronic records that show ownership details. Owning a paperless share makes conducting trades a simpler and more streamlined process, which is a far cry from the days were stock certificates needed to be taken to a. Brokerage before a trade could be conducted. 35
Index An Index is used to summarize the price movements of a unique set of goods in the financial, commodity, forex or any other market place. Financial indices are created to measure price movements of stocks, bonds, T-bills and other type of financial securities. More specifically, a stock index is created to provide investors with the information regarding the average share price in the stock market. Broad indices are expected to capture the overall behavior of equity market and need to represent the return obtained by typical portfolios in the country. BSE SENSEX and NSE NIFTY are major indices in India. Sensex SENSEX is India's first Index compiled in 1986. It is a basket of 30 constituent stocks representing a sample of large, liquid and representative companies. The base year of BSE-SENSEX is 1978-79 and the base value is 100. The index is widely reported in both domestic and international markets through print as well as electronic media. Due to its wide acceptance amongst the investors, SENSEX is regarded to be the pulse of the Indian stock market. All leading business newspapers and the business channels report SENSEX, as it is the language that all investors understand. 36
As the oldest index in the country, it provides the time series data over a fairly long period of time (from 1979 onwards) to be used for various research purposes. The Index Cell of the exchange is responsible for the day-to-day maintenance of the index within the broad index policy set by the Index Committee. The Index Cell ensures that the SENSEX and all other BSE indices maintain their benchmark properties by striking a delicate balance between frequent replacements in index and maintaining its historical continuity. SENSEX is calculated using a market capitalization weighted method. As per this methodology, the level of the index reflects the total market value of all 30- component stocks from different industries related to particular base period. The total market value of a company is determined by multiplying the price of the stock by the number of shares outstanding Statisticians call the index of a set of combined variables (such as price and No. of shares) a composite index. An indexed number is used to represent the results of this calculation in order to make the value easier to work with and track over a time. It is much easier to graph a chart based on indexed values than one used on actual values. World over majority of the well known indices are constructed using Market Capitalization Weighted Method. 37
In practice, the daily calculation of SENSEX is done by dividing the aggregate market value of the 30 Companies in the index by a number called the Index Divisor. The Divisor is the only link to the original based period value of the SENSEX. The Divisor keeps the Index comparable over a period of time and the reference point for the entire index maintenance adjustments. SENSEX is widely used to describe the mood in the Indian Stock Markets. Nifty The National Stock Exchange of India was promoted by leading Financial institutions at the behest of the Government of India, and was incorporated in November 1992 as a tax-paying company. In April 1993, it was recognized as a stock exchange under the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956. NSE is mutually-owned by a set of leading financial institutions, banks, insurance companies and The National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE), is a Mumbai-based stock exchange..

5.1 Findings: 1. Volumes and candlesticks charts are the major, important and widely used indicators in the present day around the world. The other indicators like RSI, MACD, SMA crossovers are used for positional calls for the future 2. Considering the sectors to invest, for the long term investment its better to invest in pharmacy & banking sectors. 3. The intraday trading and short term investing is done on basis of technical analysis, but for long term investment we need to consider also the fundamental analysis of those scrips. 4. Indian markets are mostly depended on global markets, so its recommended to have a glance at the world markets before we invest in stocks in our market and also many other factors like inflation, RBI policies, economic & socio-political factors should be considered before we invest.
74
5.2 Suggestions: 1. Before investing or trading in any particular stock the share holding pattern of the company should be checked out. Higher the holding of FIIs than the promoters is not good for investor to invest in that stock, those types of stocks should be avoided and stocks with low volumes are also to be avoided. 2. Prefer the stocks which have good profits and show increasing profits when compared to the previous results. Beware of the results and profits of the stocks that you choose, during the results its advised to noticing the market, because big cap companies like Reliance will influence the market a lot. 3. The daily news and press releases should be sighted for intraday and short term these factors are more to be considered to gain short term benefits.
75
5.3 Conclusion Stock market is the term given to the act of trading company shares, stocks, and other securities and its derivatives. The stock market has a number of players, which could be range from an individual stockholder to a very large corporate trader. These players can be anybody coming from any part of the world. Trading in the stock market can be done privately with an attorney or with a professional stock exchange dealer who have the power to execute the order. For the most part, stock market is very volatile in nature and that's the reason why it is so hard to predict. But due to persistent studies, the changes in the stock market can now be calculated in a relatively acceptable precision. Here are the various efforts carried out by stock market experts to predict the market's movements. Such a tool is Technical analysis which helps the investors to identify the right stocks at right time with right amounts.
