Dependent variable Term used in regression analysis to represent the element or condition that is dependent on values of one or more other independent variables.
Dependent Variable In technical analysis, a variable whose value is determined by the value of other variable(s), but plays no part in determining the value of those other variable(s). For example, if a product's price is determined by some equation involving the product's supply and its demand, the price is the dependent variable because the price does not affect the supply or demand.
