Technical Analyst

Overview

This skill enables comprehensive technical analysis of weekly price charts. Analyze chart images to identify trends, support and resistance levels, moving average relationships, volume patterns, and develop probabilistic scenarios for future price movement. All analysis is conducted objectively using only chart data, without influence from news, fundamentals, or market sentiment.

Core Principles

1. 1. Pure Chart Analysis: Base all conclusions exclusively on technical data visible in the chart
2. Systematic Approach: Follow a structured methodology for each chart analysis
3. Objective Assessment: Avoid subjective bias; focus on observable patterns and data
4. Probabilistic Scenarios: Express future possibilities as probability-weighted scenarios
5. Sequential Processing: Analyze each chart individually and document findings immediately

Analysis Workflow

Step 1: Receive Chart Images

When the user provides one or more weekly chart images for analysis:

1. 1. Confirm receipt of all chart images
2. Identify the number of charts to analyze
3. Note any specific focus areas requested by the user
4. Proceed to analyze charts sequentially, one at a time

Step 2: Load Technical Analysis Framework

Before beginning analysis, read the comprehensive technical analysis methodology:

CODEBLOCK0

This reference contains detailed guidance on:

• - Trend analysis and classification
• Support and resistance identification
• Moving average interpretation
• Volume analysis
• Chart patterns and candlestick analysis
• Scenario development and probability assignment
• Analysis discipline and objectivity

Step 3: Analyze Each Chart Systematically

For each chart image, conduct a systematic analysis following this sequence:

3.1 Trend Analysis

• - Identify trend direction (uptrend, downtrend, sideways)
• Assess trend strength (strong, moderate, weak)
• Note trend duration and potential exhaustion signals
• Examine higher highs/lows or lower highs/lows pattern

3.2 Support and Resistance Analysis

• - Mark significant horizontal support levels
• Mark significant horizontal resistance levels
• Identify trendline support/resistance
• Note any support-resistance role reversals
• Assess confluence zones where multiple S/R levels align

3.3 Moving Average Analysis

• - Determine price position relative to 20-week, 50-week, and 200-week MAs
• Assess MA alignment (bullish, bearish, or neutral configuration)
• Note MA slope (rising, falling, flat)
• Identify any recent or pending MA crossovers
• Observe MAs acting as dynamic support or resistance

3.4 Volume Analysis

• - Assess overall volume trend (increasing, decreasing, stable)
• Identify volume spikes and their context (at support/resistance, on breakouts)
• Check for volume confirmation or divergence with price
• Note any volume climax or exhaustion patterns

3.5 Chart Patterns and Price Action

• - Identify any reversal patterns (hammers, shooting stars, engulfing patterns, etc.)
• Identify any continuation patterns (flags, triangles, etc.)
• Note significant candlestick formations
• Observe recent breakouts or breakdowns

3.6 Synthesize Observations

• - Integrate all technical elements into coherent current assessment
• Identify the most significant factors influencing the chart
• Note any conflicting signals or ambiguity
• Establish key levels that will determine future direction

Step 4: Develop Probabilistic Scenarios

For each analyzed chart, create 2-4 distinct scenarios for future price movement:

Scenario Structure

Each scenario must include:

1. 1. Scenario Name: Clear, descriptive title (e.g., "Bull Case: Breakout Above Resistance")
2. Probability Estimate: Percentage likelihood based on technical factors (must sum to 100% across all scenarios)
3. Description: What this scenario entails and how it would unfold
4. Supporting Factors: Technical evidence supporting this scenario (minimum 2-3 factors)
5. Target Levels: Expected price levels if scenario plays out
6. Invalidation Level: Specific price level that would negate this scenario

Typical Scenario Framework

• - Base Case Scenario (40-60%): Most likely outcome based on current structure
• Bull Case Scenario (20-40%): Optimistic scenario requiring upside breakout
• Bear Case Scenario (20-40%): Pessimistic scenario requiring downside breakdown
• Alternative Scenario (5-15%): Lower probability but technically plausible outcome

Adjust probabilities based on strength of supporting technical factors. Ensure probabilities are realistic and sum to 100%.

Step 5: Generate Analysis Report

For each chart analyzed, create a comprehensive markdown report using the template structure:

CODEBLOCK1

The report must include all sections:

1. 1. Chart Overview
2. Trend Analysis
3. Support and Resistance Levels
4. Moving Average Analysis
5. Volume Analysis
6. Chart Patterns and Price Action
7. Current Market Assessment
8. Scenario Analysis (2-4 scenarios with probabilities)
9. Summary
10. Disclaimer

File Naming Convention: Save each analysis as INLINECODE0

Example: INLINECODE1

Step 6: Repeat for Multiple Charts

If multiple charts are provided:

1. 1. Complete the full analysis workflow (Steps 3-5) for the first chart
2. Save the analysis report
3. Proceed to the next chart
4. Repeat until all charts have been analyzed and documented

Do not batch analyses. Complete and save each report before moving to the next chart.

Quality Standards

Objectivity Requirements

• - Base all analysis strictly on observable chart data
• Avoid incorporating external information (news, fundamentals, sentiment)
• Do not use subjective language like "I think" or "I feel"
• Express uncertainty clearly when signals are ambiguous
• Present both bullish and bearish possibilities to avoid confirmation bias

Completeness Requirements

• - Address all sections of the analysis template
• Provide specific price levels for support, resistance, and targets
• Justify probability estimates with technical factors
• Include invalidation levels for each scenario
• Note any limitations or caveats to the analysis

Clarity Requirements

• - Use precise technical terminology correctly
• Write in clear, professional language
• Structure information logically
• Include specific price levels (not vague descriptions)
• Make scenarios distinct and mutually exclusive
