Exchange Traded FundsExchange traded funds have been designed to provide ability to the investors to have trading vehicle that would have the characteristics of the mutual funds, yet, would be tradable as stocks (trading during the open market hours, trading on margin and ability to open a short trade). Russell 2000 IndexRussell indexes have been developed by the Frank Russell Company and the New York Futures Exchange (NYFE), to measure U.S. market segments and were introduced to the market in1984. Nasdaq 100 IndexNasdaq 100 index is one of the largest non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq 100 stock exchange. This index is value-weighted. Nasdaq 100 does not contain financial companies.

At that time the company was called Dow, Jones & Company and the company produced and delivered daily news bulletins called to subscribers in the Wall Street area. Volume Accumulation OscillatorThe VAO (Volume Accumulation Oscillator) was developed by Mark Chaikin and in some cases this technical indicator is called the Chaikin Oscillator. In technical analysis the VAO oscillator is used to show the cumulative volume that is adjusted by the average security price (difference between the close price and the middle point price). The Volume OscillatorVO (Volume Oscillator) is a basic volume based technical indicator. Such indicators as MVO (MarketVolume Oscillator) and PVO (Percentage Volume Oscillator) are based on the VO and it is essential to understand the physics behind the Volume Oscillator in order to understand the other volume based technical indicators. New Highs and LowsNew Highs and New Lows indicators show the number of stocks hitting new 52-week highs or lows respectively. As a rule these indicators are applied to the basket of stocks: indexes and exchanges. The most common application of this technical study is applying it to the New Your Stock Exchange (NYSE). Types of Technical StudiesIn general all technical studies could be divided into four categories: a) price based; b) volume based; c) breadth indicators; d) combined studies.
