Share

The Institutional Investor on Monday ran a feature-length article about the rising popularity of technical analysis within mainstream investor circles, featuring CMT Association CEO Alvin Kressler as well as several other technical analysts who hold a variety of positions in the finance industry. 

“On the buy side more and more people are integrating technical analysis into their processes […] We are seeing more people gravitate to us,” Kressler is quoted as saying. 

Prominent member Ralph Acampora also appears, touting the technical analysis course he teaches at the University of St. Thomas.
