I am not a strict Chartist, but I do use some information from charts to make buy and sell decisions on stocks. Information like the trading volume, 200 and 50-day moving averages, all-time stock price peak are important to me in understanding stock charts importance. The aspects are some information I look for in charts of stocks. I combine this stock chart information with fundamental stock analysis. Here I will look at earnings,forward p/e ratio, return on equity and many others. I think this is a healthy combination of both quantitative and qualitative stock analysis and it has done well for me in my stock picks.
Here is an IBD example of a chart analysis for the Indian stock Infosys (INFY).
