2022-06-17 | guides | publish | This guide introduces the Technical Analysis menu, which is common across many sections of the OpenBB Terminal. |
The Technical Analysis menu offers the user a suite of tools for analyzing the technical components of an asset's trading history. The menu can be found in most wings of the Terminal:
The commands are divided by categories that define their purpose for general-use:
- Overlap - Moving averages
- Momentum - Oscillating signals
- Trend - Directional strength
- Volatility - Width of the price bands
- Volume - Singling out volume
- Custom - Fibonacci retracements
All commands in this menu will rely on the interval and window chosen when loading an asset for analysis. Refer to the directory tree on the left side of the page for information on individual commands. To get a better understanding of what these features are, and the formulas behind them, a number of sources should be consulted; but, a good starting point is Investopedia.
How to use
To begin, enter the menu from one of the menus listed above by entering ta.
Choose a beginning and end date to see a volume-weighted average price chart of the loaded ticker. vwap --start 2022-01-01 --end 2022-06-17

See the on-balance volume for the time-period loaded.
The help dialogue for any feature is printed by attaching -h to the command.
