Answer Dear ?,
A main part of all technical analysis is forecasting the price movement of stocks, etc. It is essential to be able to measure the risk versus the reward for a given trade, and technical analysis attempts to do that. It sounds like you are interested in learning about technical analysis, so I will suggest some books as a starting point...
