Trend line

Trend lines with more than 45 degrees are usually an indication that the line is not a really constructed trend line. It is important to construct a trend line really because otherwise it can lead to false signals.

The technical analysis is used to identify trends and trend in the market. These trends give us "hold" and "do not enter" signals, and trending crimes gives us buy and sell signals. There are three types of trends: up, down, and neutral trends. In a rising market you draw the trend line by connecting the bottoms of the graph that is the points where the course has changed upwards again. In a downward market trend draw it by connecting the highest prices from which the course has turned and went down again. The reason for pulling upward trends through right bottoms and downward trends through peaks is that experience shows that this will provide the best signals. The more notes that fall along a trend line, the more important it is considered. A trend line is confirmed when three points have fallen on it.

If a trend line has been drawn through two points and a third point falls less than 3% from the trend so trend lines are adjusted so that it passes through the first and the third point. One usually also use 3% margin for a trend, that the course may vary more than 3% from the trend line without a change in trend has been indicated. You can also use other restrictions not to include small details in the technical analysis. In this case, one can limit the definition of a top and a bottom that it separates at least 5 time units between a top and a bottom. Further that it should distinguish at least 5 percentage points between two successive peaks and troughs for them to be considered as a top and a bottom. Besides it, the historical data also shows that both upward and downward trends often followed by a neutral trend. These are called in these cases for distribution phase as it follows an upward trend when following a downward trend. These occur when shares changing hands from strong to weak hands, or vice versa, and can be seen as a small respite for market. The trends can be divided into two categories according to the period in which they are formed;

Primary trends with a duration of one year or longer, and;

Secondary trends a duration of three ...
