Down Commodity Trading Trend Definition

A down commodity trend occurs when the price forms a series of lower highs and lower lows. Each commodity price high is lower than the previous commodity price high - lower high, and each commodity price low is lower than the previous commodity price low - lower low therefore showing bearish commodity price movement.

Commodity Trading down trend lines gain more validity each time commodity price touches but does not penetrate the trend line. A down trend remains the general direction until this series of lower price highs & lower price lows is broken - commodity trend-line break reversal signal.
