Success can be achieved by using both fundamental and technical analysis so select which is more comfortable with you. If you choose fundamental analysis exclusively, you have to follow current breaking news, indicators, as well as political trends to make money. Using fundamental analysis for trading calls requires deep understanding how the markets work and how the markets will react to news.

You can select fundamental information with econometric tools to make trading calls. Selecting technical analysis will need the knowledge of a technical analysis trading style that suits you best. Most of the technical analysis rules have the benefit of being systematical, making testing a strategy on historical data comparably easy.
