In the June 2009 issue of the IFTA UPDATE, FINZ.tv is mentioned in the President's Report to Colleagues. Along with some housekeeping and announcements, the President's Report to Colleagues discusses the current swing cycle up of interest in Technical Analysis (TA) and the role of new-age internet media in fueling the interest in TA. FINZ.tv and in particular, FINZ.tv's flagship show "Chart Attack" is featured in this discussion on Page 2:
"The world of TA appears to be
experiencing another swing cycle up,
which will bring not only renewed and
increased interest in both mature and
emerging markets, but also a leap in
new developments. Along with
traditional publishing, this will be
supported by methods of new media
methods such as digg, Twitter, You-
Tube, or internet broadcasters like
FINZ.TV, where technicians now film,
write, publish and produce to dis-
seminate their knowledge and insight
to a worldwide audience.
Are these innovations of organized
sharing of information, TA instruc-
tion, discussion and market cover-
age valuable instruction or simply
entertainment? Is the running Twitter
commentary chatter and noise, or can
we glean information and learn? Is
the Chart Attack Channel on FINZ.TV
with its on-going and fast-paced com-
mentary and discussions by market
technicians, simply entertainment? Or
is it a preview to the future of TA-based
coverage of the markets? Will new and
groundbreaking technical indicators
emerge out of this?"
