I'm a little confused on this one. I thought technical analysis was more about looking at financial ratios and metrics, not just the stock charts themselves. But I could be misremembering. I'll have to think it over before answering.

Ah, I remember learning about technical analysis in my finance class. It's all about analyzing the patterns and trends in stock prices and trading volume, not the underlying fundamentals of the company. So I'm going with D, stock charts.
