You have finance and quant in your profile bio. Is quantitative finance not a form of technical analysis?

  The difference is quantitative finance uses mathematical models where-as when 'technical analysis' is talked about in the (youtube)stock market it generally refers to opening up mspaint and using the line draw tool to 'find patterns.'

    I see. Yeah I agree the technical analysis often presented in public forums and YouTube is not exactly rigorous.
