Efficient Markets, Behavioral Finance and a Statistical Evidence of the Validity of Technical Analysis
Abstract
This work tried to detect the existence of a relationship between the graphic signals - or patterns - observed day by day in the Brazilian stock market and the trends which happen after these signals, within a period of 8 years, for a number of securities. The results obtained from this study show evidence of the existence of such a relationship, suggesting the validity of the Technical Analysis as an instrument to predict the trend of security prices in the Brazilian stock market within that period.
