Technical Analysis is a method where one studies the market statistics to evaluate the worth of a company.
Instead of assessing the health of the company by relying on its financial statements, it relies upon market trends to predict how a security will perform.It is a method of evaluating stocks by analyzing stock market related activity, such as past prices and volume.
Technical analysts do not attempt to measure a security's intrinsic value, but instead use charts to identify patterns that can suggest future activity.
They believe in the momentum that the scrip/markets gather over a period of time and cashing in on the same. Technical analysts believe that the historical performance of stocks and markets are indications of future performance. This method enables 'short-term' investors to gauge companies who have very good potential to gather increased earnings in the near future.

Jesse Livermore Said
"The game of speculation is the most uniformly fascinating game in the world. But it is not a game for the stupid, the mentally lazy, the man of inferior emotional balance, or for the get-rich-quick adventurer. They will die poor."
