If you are using historical price/volume data to trade, you are doing TA.

It doesn't have to be charts. It could be using cointegration techniques to find deviations from long term equilibrium (stat.arb) or something else. It is still TA, it is just called differently.

At least that is how I see it. Looking at the charts is one way doing TA. Doing very math oriented econometric calculations from historical stats is another way doing it.

If you think it is like that --> there are many very succesful funds using TA.
