Technical analysis is used by some investors to pick what stocks they want to invest in. In this episode of Stocks In Translation, Yahoo Finance’s markets and data editor Jared Blikre, along with Yahoo Finance producer Sydnee Fried, sit down with HitTheBid.com Owner Kenny Glick to discuss the volatility index (^VIX), technical analysis, and AI in the trading world. Glick explains that he is "a short vol trader." With recent VIX moves, Glick says, "I was looking death in the eye… but I also knew that it’s always a temporary moment." "It was the most frightening moment I’ve had in 20 years." “People will buy into the VIX when they think there’s something going to happen bad,” Glick notes. On technical analysis, Glick says, "I think technicals are everything… that’s what’s great about it… it takes the story out of the equation." "The stories are always a catalyst. That’s why I love earnings season because that’s when you have the biggest catalysts and you have these disasters." As the question of AI’s use in the trading world continues to grow, Glick explains that "we are sort of using [AI] already because algorithms are using AI… and we’re focusing on the technical trading and there’s AI doing that trading already so in theory we are AI traders already." "This AI… it’s not going anywhere,"
