The stock market is a popular investment tool due to its risk and profit potential. Technical analysis (TA) is often overlooked by academicians, especially in Malaysia. Technical indicators help identify current and future price trends, but each has its limitations. Combining indicators for different situations can improve trading performance. This study aims to provide a balanced multi-technical indicator strategy for short-term price trend prediction. The model considers factors like trend, volatility, momentum, volume, and market sentiment, overcoming the limitations of individual indicators. The research framework uses multiple regression analysis to determine the predictive power of indicators and their combinations. The four-factor model achieves a balance between complexity and predictive accuracy. The techniques used resulted in a profit ROI (Return on Investment) of 87.45% within six months, demonstrating the efficiency of trading tactics.
