It deals with price action and market position by applying charts, tools, indicators etc.

First, we will cover the fundamental factors, you must see before analyzing a stock.

Fundamental Factors Before Buying a Stock

In order to clarify the topic, I divide the fundamental factors into qualitative and quantitative factors.

Technical Factors Before Buying a Stock

Technical analysis carries more significance in comparison to Fundamental. Most of the retail investors, HNI, analysts work with Technical tools to identify the current and future trend. You have to give more importance to this. The Fields of technical analysis consists of various tools, indicators, charts. The factors of analysis are given below:

• Entry and Exit time- To invest in a share market entry and exit timings are the golden factors. Investors who are masters to identify the correct entry-exit point can rule the market.
