See what CMTs have to say
Studying for and taking the CMT exams provided another turning point in my career, and allowed for an enhancement of an existing technical process.
Earning the CMT designation has allowed me to develop technical analysis techniques that are easy to understand, that are objective and rules-based, and that work well with fundamental analysis.
