Abstract

Among analysts, technical trading rules are widely used for forecasting security returns. Recent literature provides edivende that these rules may provide positive profits after accounting for transaction costs. This would be contrary to the theory of the efficient market hypothesis which states that security prices cannot be forecasted from their past values or other past variables.
