Equity research analysts on and off Wall Street typically use earnings growth and fundamental research as a form of valuation and forecasting. But many in trading turn to technical analysis as a way to form predictive models for share price trajectory.

Looking at Arm Holdings, an investor could make an assessment about a stock's long term prospects using a moving average and trend line.
