A trend analysis is trying to determine what pattern will occur next base on historical occurance. Sounds familiar ? Indeed it is, historical records do NOT guarantee future result.
Performing simple trend analysis is simple and straight forward :
First plot the pattern in a graph,Then try to connect all the low points using a straight line,Likewise do the same with all the high points.
Do not make guesses or judgement when drawing these 2 lines. ONLY connect all the LOW and HIGH points, no other adjustment is needed ( at least not for now ).
So by drawing these 2 lines, you can tell if it is in ;
UP TrendDown TrendTrend Sideway orNo Trends
When you are having a tough time to draw any of the line following above method. Then its a No Trend iendified condition.
Once you know the trends, you can
chase the up and down trendstrade with care on side trends anddo NOT trade in no trends
Chasing up trend is also called Long where you buy now sell later which is what normally stock investment is.
Chasing down trend is Short : sell now buy later, usually used more in derivative market.
