Chartered Market Technician (CMT)
What it is:
A Chartered Market Technician (CMT) is an individual who has been certified by the Market Technicians Association.
How it works/Example:
The Market Technicians Association (MTA) grants the Chartered Market Technician (CMT) designation to candidates who have shown proficiency in technical market analysis as demonstrated in a series of three professional examinations. Candidates must be contributing members of the MTA and agree to uphold its ethical code.
Why it matters:
The CMT designation certifies that an individual has shown performance in technical analysis consistent with the standards of the MTA. For this reason, a CMT may be regarded as a dependable and professional resource for technical interpretations of market behavior patterns.
