Technical Analysis
Technical Analysis

An economic calendar provides a schedule of key global economic events coming in the next 5 days and interactive graphs illustrate economic indicators' historical data, market expectations, actual values and calculated volatility. Each indicator is accompanied with a brief description, helping the novice trader get used to Forex and CFD trading.

One of the most popular methods in technical analysis used by both institutional and retail traders is determining the resistance and support levels using the so-called Pivot Point, which is the starting point when defining market sentiment as bullish or bearish. Deltastock provides an ongoing live pivot point graph as well as other technical tools for determining resistance/support levels which include prior tops/bottoms, trend lines and trend channels, Moving Averages and Fibonacci Retracements.

Deltastock also posts listings of central bank interest rates, market stats on the most popular stocks and updated relationships between one currency and another.
