For nearly 50 years the CMT Association has worked to advance the discipline of technical analysis.  What started as a small group of sell-side analysts on Wall Street is now a global association of over 4,500 members in 85 countries.

The mission of the CMT Association is to establish and maintain the highest professional standards among technical analysts by educating the investment community about the theory, practice, and application of technical analysis.

Technical analysis provides the tools to successfully navigate the gap between intrinsic value and market price across all asset classes through a disciplined, systematic approach to market behavior and the law of supply and demand.

The Chartered Market Technician® (CMT) credential is the preeminent, global designation for practitioners of technical analysis.  Earning the CMT demonstrates mastery of a core body of knowledge of investment risk in portfolio management; including quantitative approaches to market research and rules based trading system design and testing. 

The CBOK is packaged into a custom curriculum organized into exam specific knowledge domains that provide a framework for recognizing and implementing investment/trading decisions. The program requires three levels of examination, each building on the previous. The levels progressively narrow in focus while increasing the emphasis on higher-order reasoning.

Earning the CMT charter makes you part of a community of investment professionals recognized as specialists and value generators around the world.  A perfect complement to other analytical disciplines and financial designations, the CMT charter puts you on the leading edge of the ever-changing investment industry.
