The good news is that much of this analysis is also available to people like us. Of course, we either have to pay professionals to do the analysis for us or take the time sifting through it all to make our own determinations. There are copious amounts of analysis available for futures, but two well-known categories are fundamental and technical analysis. These are used to forecast possible price movements for futures and many traders base trading decisions on them.

Technical analysis, on the other hand, is based on historical data, chart analysis, and statistical information, and it attempts to establish patterns.
