We have a number of research tools designed to save you time analyzing the securities you’re considering for your investments. To get started, look up any ticker symbol and open the price chart to check the latest analytics.

Through our partner Trading Central, Yahoo Finance Premium uses standard practices of technical analysis to look for trends or patterns in how stock prices are changing over time. For example, we might generate a positive or bullish technical event when the price starts trading above its average price.

We might also generate a bullish technical event when a chart pattern forms that suggests the price may be breaking out to move higher. You can learn about why these are significant by clicking on an event to reveal the information panel. Bullish technical events are plotted on the chart as green circles. Bearish technical events, which demonstrate signs of weakness, are plotted as red squares.

Use the tabs along the top to give perspective across different time horizons including short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term. In this case, we are seeing several signs of strength which helps to validate the idea you might have to invest in a stock like this.

Now you can see how much value you can get out of briefly checking your stocks with Premium Technical Events added to price charts. Start your free trial to Yahoo Finance Premium today.
