什么是技术分析?
技术分析
“我们所关心的并不是一项投资的真实价值,而是受大
众心理影响的市场对它的估值。”
J M 凯恩斯(1935)
价值
大众心理
3
技术分析
研究过去价格行为,以预测未来价格行为。
基本原理:
• 价格包含所有贴现因素
• 价格随趋势变动
• 历史不断重演

道氏理论
查尔斯•道: 1851-1902
• 1882年,与爱德华•琼斯一同创建了道琼斯公司
• 1889年,创刊出版《华尔街日报》 ,并任首位编辑
• 1884年,创立了首个股票市场平均指数,由11支股票组成
• 1896年,创立了道琼斯工业平均指数,包含12支股票
• 后衍生为两个指数,另一个是道琼斯铁路平均指数,包含20支股票。即后来的
道·琼斯运输业股价平均指数
• 1928年道琼斯工业平均指数股票复盖面扩大到30种
• 1929年又添加了公用事业股票价格指数
• 道本意是将他的平均指数作为经济的晴雨表
• 而非作为股票的预测工具
6
道氏理论 – 西方技术分析的起源
• 道氏的《华尔街日报》社论在其身后重印,1903年收入塞缪尔·纳尔逊的经典著
作《股市投机原理》一书中
• “道氏理论”作为专有名词首次被使用
• 道氏理论仍是今天大部分常用西方技术分析的核心
• 六大核心原理:
• 平均指数(市场/价格)包含一切
• 市场有三种核心趋势
• 趋势分为三个阶段
• 各种平均指数必须相互验证
• 成交量必须验证趋势
• 在观察到明确的反转信号之前,趋势被假定一直持续

道指, 收盘价和横线
道氏相信,只需要关注收盘价,而
非日间最高价和最低价。
“横线”通常是指持续至少两周的
横向区间。换句话说,就是“矩形”
的持续形态。详情见后。

市场可归为3种核心趋势
• 基本趋势或大趋势
• 从几个月(6个月?)到数年不等
• 次级趋势或中趋势
• 从2-3周,到3-6个月不等。价格回撤幅度一般为基本趋
势的1/3 或2/3。
• 短暂趋势或小趋势
• 几小时(甚至几分钟?),到2-3周不等。
These are not hard and fast timeframes, but guidelines, and opinion will
vary from analyst to analyst

13
趋势有三个不同阶段
• 第1阶段 – 积累期:
• 熊市末尾牛市开端,坏消息频传。“消息灵通”的投资商开始精明地逐步买
进,或“积累”。这个阶段也叫“建仓”期,价格行为横向移动。
• 第2阶段 – 参与期:
• 投资者参与度不断增加,经济及基本面新闻趋缓还阳。技术分析和趋势跟踪
系统进场。大趋势正式开始。
• 第3阶段 – 出货期:
• “消息灵通”的投资商开始出货,“出清”长仓。但“热钱”继续推升参与
度。经济新闻捷报频传。市场处于鼎盛阶段。牛市的终结,熊市的开端。

验证
• 在健康的经济形势下,真正的牛市必须同时反映在产品生产公司和产品运输公司的
股价上。
• 工业指数创下新高,只有当运输业指数也同时创下新高时,才能得以验证。
• 反之,市场则可能出现反转。

缺点
道氏理论经常为人诟病的地方:
• 不能预测拐点
• 不能给出目标
• 着眼太过长期
• 太过笼统
• 陈旧过时?
23
趋势分析
我们将去向何处 ?
各种趋势具有相似的特点
10年期美国国债收益
Time series data in both 10yr US yields and
EUR/USD show very similar properties.
EUR/USD
We look to identify tools to use for a general nonspecific trend, and then apply across assets.
25
第1步 – 定义趋势
Uptrend – Higher Highs and Higher Lows – Be long
Downtrend – Lower Lows and Lower Highs – Be short
In an uptrend, we like to see higher volume on the rallies, and
lower volume on the setbacks. Vice-versa in a downtrend.
A trend in motion … is more likely to continue than reverse.
We let the trend tell us when it has reversed.
i.e., Do not fight a trend.

交易趋势 – 趋势线
如何画趋势线:
• 上升的趋势线连接各低点

回
撤
回撤
• 道氏理论认为,次生趋势在重新回归原趋势之前,价格回撤幅度一般为主
要趋势的1/3 到2/3。
• 一旦高点/低点有望确定,就可以应用回撤百分点确定潜在的拐点区域。
• 但常用的方法是斐波拉契回撤 – 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%
• 趋势中的回撤目标
• 趋势延续目标
• 阻力位与支撑位
• 时机工具
42
斐波拉契回撤
如何确定回撤水平
在上升趋势当中:
• 确定反弹的高点 – A
• 确定反弹的低点 – B
• 测算B到A的垂直距离= C
• 用核心回撤百分比乘以C,将得到的数值从B中扣除
B = 150
B
C = B-A = 140
A = 10
A
X = 96.52
38.2% retracement (X)
X = B – [38.2%(C) ]
X = 150 – [(140/100)*38.2]
X = 150 – [1.4*38.2]
X = 96.52
43
斐波拉契回撤
A

斐波拉契扇形线
• 判断支撑、阻力以及趋势是否健康,要考虑
时间及价格的因素。
B
• 使用同样地方法计算标准回撤。选择两个极
端点(A点到B点)。计算它们之间的绝对价
格差(BC)。
38.2%
A
• 可用于处于上升趋势和下降趋势的市场。
50%
• 在BC线上标出回撤率分别为38.2%、50% 和
61.8%的价位。
61.8%
• 以A点为顶点,将其与已求得的回撤点连接,
作扇形线,从而得出潜在的支撑位。

速度线
B
• 与斐波拉契扇形线在概念上类似。
• 选择两个极端点(A点到B点)。计算它们
之间的绝对价格差(BC)。
• 计算BC的距离,并标出BC1/3、 2/3的水平。
1/3
• 可用于处于上升趋势和下降趋势的市场。
• 以A点为顶点,将其与1/3点、2/3点连接,
作扇形线,从而得出潜在的支撑位或阻力位。

推。
• 一旦一条线突破了顶部或底部,就将移到下一
条线。
• 江恩认为1X1 夹角是最重要的夹角,代表价格与时间
的完美平衡,被他视为最可持续的趋势。

趋势力度
趋向变动指标系统
• 由威尔斯·魏尔德设计,在《技术交易系统新概念》一书中进行了介绍。
• 他设计了目标和机械系统,以判断市场是趋势市场还是区间市场。
• 由三条线组成:与整体趋势强度相关的ADX,形成系统主干的两条趋向线+DI
and –DI。
• 趋向变动是通过比较两个相邻的高点和低点来确定的
• +DI与正趋向变动相关,–DI与负趋向变动相关
56
计算趋向变动线
• 绘制屏幕上显示的DI线需要两步。
• 计算始于比较四个点。当天的高点与前一天的高点比较,当天的低点与前一天的低点比较。
• 高点之差大于低点之差,则为+DI
25
20
Here we can see the difference between the highs is greater
than the difference between the lows, thus resulting in +DI
17
15
• 反之,则为-DI
• 计算至少14天的差值,得到原始DI线。
• 使用平均真实波动 (ATR) 对 +DI (+DI14) 、 –DI (-DI14) 线作平滑化处理。
57
趋向系统(DMI)
Crossings by the DI lines generate buy
and sell signals, when the crossing
occurs above 25.
58
计算平均趋向指数
• 平均趋向指数(ADX)是用前几页得出的平滑化 +DI14 、–DI14 线计算的。
• 第一步是计算趋向变动 (DM) 指数. 取平滑+DI14的绝对值,减去平滑 –DI14的值。
将所得结果除以+DI14、–DI14之和。
• 平均趋向指数 (ADX) 是连续14天趋向变动指数的平均值。
59
趋势定义: ADX
ADX从趋向线衍生而来,可用于衡量趋向变动的强度。
GBP/USD
 +DI and –DI lines are used to generate the ADX line, which
measures the strength of the directional movement and
determines if a trend exists.
 Below 20 – weak/non-trending ; Above 20 – market is starting
to trend; Above 40 – strong trend

Credit Suisse
We analyse the trend or performance
of a stock relative to the broader
market – i.e., a sector or an index.
We apply exactly the same trend
analysis to ratio or relative line, as we
would to the individual stock.
We are concerned with the direction
of the relative trend, not the value.

Relative trending higher – the stock is outperforming.
Relative trendline lower – the stock is underperforming.

阻力与支撑
我们在途中何处停止?
阻力与支撑
市场停止上升/下降的地方
阻力。在一价位有足够的卖方供给以
阻止股价升高,从而形成高点。
支撑。在某一价位有足够的买力出现,起
码制止下跌趋向,从而形成低点。
66
阻力与支撑
阻力位与支撑位可从以下很多来源中找到:
• 先前高位
• 先前低位
• 潜在阻力(趋势线)
• 移动平均线
• 斐波拉契水平
• 基准点
• 形态目标
• 缺口及其它…
最重要的阻力和支撑是各种阻力位和支撑位聚集的地方。
在某一价位附近形成的阻力/支撑,市场就越有可能在该处暂停。

Not Rated: Credit Suisse Global Credit Research or Global Leveraged Finance Research covers the issuer but currently does not offer an investment view on the subject issue.
Not Covered: Neither Credit Suisse Global Credit Research nor Global Leveraged Finance Research covers the issuer or offers an investment view on the issuer or any securities related to it. Any communication from Research on securities or companies that Credit Suisse does not cover is
factual or a reasonable, non-material deduction based on an analysis of publicly available information.
Corporate Bond Risk Category Definitions
In addition to the recommendation, each issue may have a risk category indicating that it is an appropriate holding for an "average" high yield investor, designated as Market, or that it has a higher or lower risk profile, designated as Speculative and Conservative, respectively.
Credit Suisse Credit Rating Definitions
Credit Suisse may assign rating opinions to investment-grade and crossover issuers. Ratings are based on our assessment of a company's creditworthiness and are not recommendations to buy or sell a security. The ratings scale (AAA, AA, A, BBB, BB, B) is dependent on our assessment of an
issuer's ability to meet its financial commitments in a timely manner. Within each category, creditworthiness is further detailed with a scale of High, Mid, or Low – with High being the strongest sub-category rating: High AAA, Mid AAA, Low AAA – obligor's capacity to meet its financial
commitments is extremely strong; High AA, Mid AA, Low AA – obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitments is very strong; High A, Mid A, Low A – obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitments is strong; High BBB, Mid BBB, Low BBB – obligor's capacity to meet its financial
commitments is adequate, but adverse economic/operating/financial circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to meet its obligations; High BB, Mid BB, Low BB – obligations have speculative characteristics and are subject to substantial credit risk; High B, Mid B, Low B –
obligor's capacity to meet financial commitments is very weak and highly vulnerable to adverse economic, operating, and financial circumstances; High CCC, Mid CCC, Low CCC – obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitments is extremely weak and is dependent on favorable economic,
operating, and financial circumstances. Credit Suisse's rating opinions do not necessarily correlate with those of the rating agencies.

Past performance should not be taken as an indication or guarantee of future performance, and no representation or warranty, express or implied, is made regarding future performance. Information, opinions and estimates contained in this report
reflect a judgement at its original date of publication by CS and are subject to change without notice. The price, value of and income from any of the securities or financial instruments mentioned in this report can fall as well as rise. The value of securities
and financial instruments is subject to exchange rate fluctuation that may have a positive or adverse effect on the price or income of such securities or financial instruments. Investors in securities such as ADR’s, the values of which are influenced by
currency volatility, effectively assume this risk.
Structured securities are complex instruments, typically involve a high degree of risk and are intended for sale only to sophisticated investors who are capable of understanding and assuming the risks involved. The market value of any structured
security may be affected by changes in economic, financial and political factors (including, but not limited to, spot and forward interest and exchange rates), time to maturity, market conditions and volatility, and the credit quality of any issuer or reference
issuer. Any investor interested in purchasing a structured product should conduct their own investigation and analysis of the product and consult with their own professional advisers as to the risks involved in making such a purchase.
Some investments discussed in this report may have a high level of volatility. High volatility investments may experience sudden and large falls in their value causing losses when that investment is realised. Those losses may equal your original
investment. Indeed, in the case of some investments the potential losses may exceed the amount of initial investment and, in such circumstances, you may be required to pay more money to support those losses. Income yields from investments may
fluctuate and, in consequence, initial capital paid to make the investment may be used as part of that income yield. Some investments may not be readily realisable and it may be difficult to sell or realise those investments, similarly it may prove difficult
for you to obtain reliable information about the value, or risks, to which such an investment is exposed.
