There are many links to paid sites and pop ups, but there seems to be a lot of good information here: The following are all live links. Having previously admitted that I have very little knowledge of technical analysis, I would like to know how many variations of the science there are? Are all these terms related to one form of analysis, let's say candlestick as an example? If not, how does one go about choosing a method of analysis?
