Dow theory is based on the collected writings of Dow Jones co-founder and editor Charles Dow, and inspired the use and development of modern technical analysis at the end of the 19th century.
Dow teooria põhineb Dow Jonesi kaasautori Charles Dow' kirjutistel ning on inspireerinud tänapäevase tehnilise analüüsi kasutamist ja arendamist 19. sajandi lõpust alates.
