Morphology
The compound is a straightforward adjective + noun: 'technical' (relating to technical methods or techniques) + 'analyst' (an expert who evaluates data) yields an analyst who uses technical methods. This compositional pattern is common cross-linguistically (e.g., 'analista técnico') and a B1 learner who knows both words will reliably infer the intended meaning.
Etymology
Technical analyst paints a simple picture: technical points to the use of 'charts' and tools, and analyst is a person who studies the repeating 'patterns' in those charts to guess where prices will go. So a technical analyst is someone who uses past price 'charts' rather than company facts to predict market moves.
