The types of analysis techniques on the financial markets and the application of technical analysis to different time dimensions and different types of markets will be presented. The principles of creating charts and analysis of the trend and basic indicators will be discussed. In the second part of the course, the methodology of evaluating the strategy of selected financial institutions from the point of view of building a competitive advantage will be presented. Its key element will be the analysis of the market environment (opportunities and threats related to economic, legal, socio-cultural specifics as well as demographic and technological changes on the international and global scale). The sources, reasons, strength and probability of market risk will be determined. Particular attention will be paid to the mutual relations of market interactions with buffers / forces / internal resources that create challenges and limitations of financial institution strategies.
