L’analyse de marché
1. Mes SourcesEconomics
JP Morgan – lecture hebdomadaireTechnicals

L’analyse de marché
2. Domaines d’analysesTechnicals
Mon analyse “B. E.S. T.” hebdomadaire des indices globaux. Un suivi de recherche externe dans 3 domaines:
Profondeur du marché actions US (“Breadth”) Cycles et recherche analogique (“Historical Price Pattern”) Indicateurs de Sentiment de marché (“Behavioral area”)
Mon méthode est de complémenter mon analyse des prixpar un nombre restreints de sources externes, analysées enprofondeur et régulièrement, afin d’éviter du bruit non filtré.

La boite à outils
3. Choix des méthodesParamètres :1. Horizon de temps: T, M, H, J2. Tendance: Direction & force avec MA (40) & MACD3. Cycle: Retour à la Moyenne (Trading range) se base sur
principe “ Vitesse précède Prix” (“Momentum precedes price”) & Slow Stochastics (7; 14)
4. Volatilité: “break out” & Bollinger bandes (20)5. Configuration: nature fractale de prix & 3 E - «Expérience 3x»6. Sentiment: comportement en situations extrêmes
Bruno Estier Strategic Technicals • Geneva p. 7
En théorie, le concept de cycle et d’oscillateur de « retour à lamoyenne » est relié à la courbe sinusoïdal (F) et à sa dérivéepremière (F’), ainsi qu’au concept de «divergence technique»

En pratique, ce graphe suggérant un rebond a été publié parB.E.S.T. dans le journal Le Temps (20.12.2012) pour illustrer le“Retour à la moyenne “ (concept cyclique) saisi par le SlowStochastic hebdomadaire, situé sur le panel inférieur.

These are discretionary positions taken mostly when Euro is moving or whenwe think it may be gaining value against the US$, as the tactical allocation ismade of US ETFs. Thus the performance of this pro format non-systematichedge for a Euro-based investor is recorded separately.
