Principles of How Do I Draw and Define Trend?

  1. Use candle charts

  2. The areas used to draw the trend are along the lows of price bars in a bullish market. An upwards bullish trend move is defined by higher highs & higher lows.
  3. The points used to draw the trendlines are extremes points - the high or the low price. These price extremes are critical because a close beyond the extremes tells traders that the trend of the instrument might be changing. This is an exit signal.
  4. The more often an upwards trend is touched by price but not broken by price, the more powerful the upwards trend signal.
