Press Release: AsiaPacFinance.com Creates First Ever Online Trading Course Based on IFTA and MTA Syllabus

The Search for Credible and Comprehensive Technical Analysis Education is Now Over

Singapore – 6 February 2011 - Fundamental Analysis has had a stronghold on Wall Street on these years, with universities teaching fundamentals, and research analysts churning out fundamental reports. In the past decade, there has been a growing movement in the investment community: Technical Analysis.

Some call it witchcraft, others call it pattern recognition. This mysterious form of trading has created numerous legendary traders such as the Turtle Traders. Not surprisingly, retail investors have jumped on the bandwagon and are thirsty for knowledge in this realm of investing. Question is, where can they learn this art?

Much like how we have the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) program which teaches largely fundamentals and portfolio management, the trading community realised a need for an associate for Technical Analysts. The two official associations are the International Federation of Technical Analysts (IFTA), and the Market Technician Association (MTA), and they have qualifications called Certified Financial Technician Program and Chartered Market Technician respectively. Similar to the CFA, these are exams you can take which qualify you as a professional technical analyst.

While the exams and qualifications are structured, the exam preparation is not. Candidates and traders are given a long list of books and resources to read, which usually takes them three years to complete the program.

A Singapore-based company, AsiaPacFinance.com, realises a need for an efficient way for traders to efficiently absorb the contents of technical analysis. They have created and are offering globally, a suite of online trading courses based on the IFTA and MTA syllabus.

AsiaPacFinance.com Founders have stated that this is the most structured, comprehensive and credible program, in the education of technical analysis. The interactive online trading causes are full of charts and quizzes, which go deep into the contents, ensuring an understanding and appreciation of this art of investing.
