Zig Zag - A Zig Zag is an indicator, used in technical analysis. An indicator is data which provides information about how stock is performing in a certain situation. It helps investors to determine the most important movements in a security's chart. Movements are changes in price, value or rate of stock. A security's chart is a graph, used by technical analysts, which shows all the movements of stock in a certain period. The indicator filters out changes that are less than a certain percentage or amount. (An amount is a quantity, used in transactions.) This way the significant information stays behind. |
