the technical factors i use are...
30 day simple moving average,
30 day simple moving average ratio,
18 week return,
3 day return,
support/resistance
RSI (14 day)
stochastics
MACD
The 18 week return has to be at least 30% for me to consider it... I also look for consistency, in that if most of that was in a single week or two, i dismiss the stock.
I look for stocks above the moving average, but within 5%. I look at past history to determine if the 30 day moving average has served as strong support in the past, and if so, i assume it will in this case as well. (i sell if it goes under)
I then give preference to stocks that have went up over the last 3 days, because that helps to signal a reversal has occurred. I look at stochastics, RSI, and MACD as secondary signals to confirm a reversal is indeed occurring.
Finally, i look at support and resistance levels to see if theres anything i should be wary of.
and thats my technical analysis.

I always use MACD, RSI, and Full Stochastics (combines slow and fast stochastics). I also look at moving averages, such as 50 and 200 day. On occasion I will also use CCI and Williams % R. I also use resistance and support levels to judge whether or not to enter a position, or where to put a stop loss order.
