NCFM Technical Analysis case studies

NCFM Technical Analysis · Put your knowledge to work in context.

The NCFM Technical Analysis module is one of the self-study certification modules offered under NCFM (NSE Certification in Financial Markets), a programme administered by NAL Academy Limited (formerly known as NSE Academy Limited), an NSE group company. Candidates register through the NCFM process and take the test online through the NCFM portal, which the exchange describes as the portal for online testing and certification programmes offered by NAL Academy. The module is aimed at students, analysts, dealers and independent traders who want a structured, exam-tested grounding in chart-based market analysis rather than tips or discretionary guesswork. Content is organised around six areas: the philosophy and assumptions of technical analysis; chart construction and chart patterns; trend lines, support and resistance; moving averages and indicators; oscillators and momentum studies; and trading systems with money management. The NCFM Technical Analysis case studies are 5 cases and about 2,317 words.
