A technical indicator is a series of data points that are derived by applying a formula to the price data of a security. Price data includes any combination of the open, high, low or close over a period of time. Some indicators may use only the closing prices, while others incorporate volume and open interest into their formulas. The price data is entered into the formula and a data point is produced. For example, the average of 3 closing prices is one data point ((41+43+43) / 3 = 42.33) ... A series of data points over a period of time is required to create valid reference points to enable analysis. By creating a time series of data points, a comparison can be made between present and past levels. For analysis purposes, technical indicators are usually shown in a graphical form above or below a security's price chart. Once shown in graphical form, an indicator can then be compared with the corresponding price chart of the security.

CONT

Technical indicators look to predict the future price levels, or simply the general price direction, of a security by looking at past patterns. Examples of common technical indicators include the relative strength index, the money flow index, stochastics, the MACD [moving average convergence divergence] and the bollinger bands.

Un indicateur technique est une série de points utilisée pour analyser les titres boursiers dans le but de prédire l'évolution des cours. L'indicateur est une formule mathématique qui utilise le prix et/ou le volume d’un titre sur une période donnée pour mettre en évidence et exploiter des situations de marché. Ils mesurent la vitesse et la qualité du mouvement des prix et servent à identifier : les situations d’excès à la hausse et à la baisse par des niveaux de surachat ou de survente; l'essoufflement de la tendance en cours grâce aux divergences [et] la dynamique du marché grâce aux indicateurs de suivi de tendance.

Maximum price recently reached by a security that causes many investors to sell at a certain profit, based on the belief that it will be difficult to beat.

CONT

Although designed initially for use in the stock market, [Richard Demille] Wyckoff's system is equally useful for application to commodities markets. Wyckoff says the tape gives support and resistance levels, climactic volumes, the comparative time required to correct a preceding rally or sell-off, and changes in behavior that foretell an imminent trend shift.

For more than six decades the US Government has been implementing policies to stem urban blight and decay. Despite massive investments in social programs for decaying inner cities there is growing evidence of accelerating slumification and increasing social problems. Unknown to many, people in the slums and hyper-ghettos have, in their daily struggle for basis needs, developed new and innovative mechanisms for survival. These help to maintain both human dignity and a sense of community. In addition, they visibly change the community and serve as an impulse to revitalizing neighborhoods. The Community Garden Movement of New York City is a successful example of a grassroots initiative that made a visible impact on the slums by motivating the community and mobilizing endogenous potentials.

CONT

What Allen advocates increases the pressure for more new housing elsewhere in the region. If these pressures are not met to offset the constraints imposed in the Upper East Side and in similar NIMBY strongholds, all consumers will see prices escalate. Further, consumers who cannot afford increased housing prices where it is allowed of within the strongholds of constrained upper class neighborhoods, will have to crowd into older areas where only code enforcement will avoid slumification.

DEF

Résultat découlant du délabrement, de la détérioration ou de l’abandon des logements.

CONT

La baisse relative des prix résultant de ce stock abondant a amené les utilisateurs de locaux anciens à déménager vers de nouveaux bureaux, entraînant un mouvement des marchés au terme duquel les surfaces les plus anciennes ne trouvent plus preneur et sont vouées à une "taudification" rapide(Métropolis, vol. 5, no 39,(1979), p. 64).

CONT

Pour les ménages plus modestes, les contraintes sont plus nombreuses. La proximité au lieu d’emploi et le bas coût du logement se combinent pour expliquer la densification et la paupérisation des quartiers centraux et péricentraux (Joubert Park, Mayfair et Fordsburg en particulier, où se concentrent de nombreux immigrés travaillant dans la petite industrie et le commerce), en logement locatif dont la suroccupation et la taudification progressive deviennent parfois préoccupantes.
