Is technical analysis still a valid approach to getting results in your portfolio? I know it was popular in the 80's and 90's but it seems fundamental analysis and price action trading have become the norm.

ok this may or may not be my first time on /biz/. So i take it the general consensus around here is that FA is the way to go? What about entry and exit points once you find a fundamentally sound security, wouldnt TA be of some use then?

I use it, but I'm a trader.
The average investor has little use for it, as they're not that concerned with exact entry and exit points.
It's useful to know, but much of technical trading is based on the individual investor. You should use a combination of the two plus your intuition about the company's management to make the most accurate investment decision.
But as far as technical trading goes, study John Murphy.

It was never a valid approach to getting results in a portfolio. There's tons a studies which show that there's no basis in technical analysis alone while trading/long term investing.
Learn fundamental analysis/quantitative analysis instead.
