OBJECTIVE

The objective of the project is to study the various theories of technical analysis, which help us to understand the movement of stock prices. The study also involves understanding the factors that affect the movement of stock prices in the Indian Stock markets. Analysing the various factors would help us in understanding the stock markets in a better manner and hence ensuring the safety of our investments as well as maximizing returns on such investments.

We all want to make money in the stock market. We do so by selling stock at a price higher than what we buy it for. It makes sense, then, that to make money in the stock market; we need to understand what causes prices to change. By having an appreciation for the things that motivate stock price change, we can be better at anticipating the direction and velocity of price moves.
