"Technical analysis is at it's essence the study of all factors impacting stock price. At Epiphany we view technical analysis as a necessary and significant tool providing critical information on market directional changes, sector strength and individual stock performance. It is not simply about the next breakout but rather a comprehensive review of all sectors and all stocks alerting one to the opportunities that are present as groups bottom or as trends begin or end."
