Dir Sirs, my reverted/deleted contributions (by User: Smallbones) are not spam o personal promotion, but simply the results of my graduation thesis, called "Technical analysis on the S&500: from long term to intra-day", defended last 3rd May 2007 at the University "Tor Vergata" of Rome (Italy).

In my research I have studied, selected and integrated the contributions of several international Authors (i.e. Achelis S.B., Caparrelli F., Fornasini A., Murphy J.J., Pring M.J).

So, you can realize that:

A) Technical analysis, in the strict sense, means the study of a market (financial o real) based only on the examination of data captured from itself.

B) Technical analysis, in the wide sense, is the theory of analysis (that is, a mix of principles and instruments) through which is possible to forecast the future behavior of a listed good (real or financial), studying its past history.

C) the principles of Technical analysis are not three, but five:

1) the "Inefficient Market Hypothesis" (or "asymmetric information" among investors). This is the "base philosophic premise" of Technical and fundamental analysis in alternative to E.M.H. and Modern Theory of portfolio;
2) the "Market Action Discounts Everything";
3) the "Prices Move in trends";
4) the "History Tends to Repeat itself";
5) the "Irrational Investors Hypothesis” (this philosophic premise serves to have clear the difference with fundamental analysis).

For more information, you can free download the first chapter of my thesis at www.analisitecnicafinanziaria.it/libro3.htm.

In the hope you agree, please, you consider to re-publish my deleted contributions. Thank you. IgorLaurelli (talk) 16:35, 24 February 2008 (UTC)


Hi, the recent edit you made to Technical analysis has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks. - ✰ALLSTAR✰ echo 05:23, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Please read John's links; WP:OR is not verifiable, and therefore not for an encyclopedia. Sorry. It isn't anything personal; however, factual information should be reliably cited. Cheers, Master of Puppets Call me MoP!☺ 18:57, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
Regarding your off-Wikipedia email you sent me, I think everyone above has given you the reasons why your edits are unacceptable: Per Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and per Wikipedia:No original research - so I won't go into details. Thanks. - ✰ALLSTAR✰ echo 22:47, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for your help, by Igor.

NB. A Question for Wikipedian users? {{helpme}}

Dear Users, I would like to edit some useful contributions about Technical Analysis (definitions and principles), but I could fall in a Conflict of interest (COI).

Last 3 may 2007 I defended my graduation thesis called “Technical Analysis on S&P500: from long term to intra-day” at University “Tor Vergata” of Rome. In my research I studied, selected and integrated the contributions of several international Authors (i.e. Achelis S.B., Caparrelli F., Fornasini A., Murphy J.J., Pring M.J).

So, among others, I realized that the best way to describe Technical Analysis is to say:

A) It doesn't exist an unique definition of Technical Analysis:

- For Murphy J.J. “Technical analysis is................... - For Pring M.J. “Technical analysis is ............ - ....................

B) Technical analysis, in the strict sense, means the study of a market (financial o real) based only on the examination of data captured from itself. (You can find this smart and appropriate definition in “Analisi Tecnica e Fondamentale di Borsa”, Fornasini A., Ed. Etas Libri, 1991, pag. 22).

C) Technical analysis, in the wide sense, is the theory of analysis (that is, a mix of principles and instruments) through which is possible to forecast the future behavior of a listed good (real or financial), studying its past history. (This is a general definition that I have create - as a synthesis - by various sources)

D) the principles of Technical analysis are not three, but five:

 1) the "Inefficient Market Hypothesis" (or "asymmetric information" among investors). This is the "base philosophic premise" of Technical and 
    fundamental analysis in alternative to E.M.H. and Modern Theory of portfolio (you can find this explaination in “Economia dei mercati 
    Finanziari. Il mercato azionario", Caparrelli F., Ed. McGraw-Hill Libri Italia, 1998, pp. 511 and 385-394); 
 2) the "Market Action Discounts Everything";
 3) the "Prices Move in trends";
 4) the "History Tends to Repeat itself"; 
 5) the "Irrational Investors Hypothesis”, This philosophic premise serves to have clear the difference with fundamental analysis (you can find   
    this explaination in “Economia dei mercati finanziari. Il mercato azionario", Caparrelli F., Ed.McGraw-Hill Libri Italia, 1998, pp.392-393,note7).

For more information, you can also free download the first chapter of my thesis at www.analisitecnicafinanziaria.it/libro3.htm.

In order to favour the knowledge of Technical Analysis and improve Wikipedia's article, I think, we have to edit above-mentioned concepts. Please help me to get through!
