The steady movement of price in a particular direction over time say 1 hour, 1 week, 1 month is called TREND

These movements can be a long term movement, short-term movement, upward movement, downward movement or even side ways.

All these movements in price is better understood for effective trading and profit making.

Trend line helps the trader to understand and determine the current direction of price and it often determines the specific direction on which the direction will change say from bullish to bearish or from bearish to bullish.

Explain how to draw an uptrend line and a downtrend line (Show a screenshot of each)

An uptrend is formed when the price in the market is moving in the higher high and higher low direction.

Therefore, in drawing an uptrend the lows are considered I.e we connect the major troughs in an upward movement of price showing a bullish movement of price.

A downtrend is formed when the market price makes a successive lower high and lower low.

Screenshot_20210716-161445_1.png

So, we draw a downtrend by connecting the peaks of the price movement in a downward movement of price which shows a bearish movement of price

Define in your own words what "Supports and Resistances are and how we can identify both zones (Show a screenshot of each one).

Support

Support is a price movement level where a large number of buyers enters the market to stop the downtrending of price in the market thereby overpowering the number of sellers in the market.

For instance, in Nigeria right now there is a short supply of vegetables like onions, tomatoes, pepper, cabbage, carrots etc. Which make the prices of these goods to increase drastically. But supposedly there is a new supply of these vegetables in large quantities suppressing the initial supply then there will be a turnaround in price especially if the buyers remain constant.

Resistance

7YHZyBadGPMGPpmSAvnvPWhbR1Eo9nKWN6xzUJNzgxziWYbA6pEQcn6ZKcDXwY27JzkykasSmDqsZaJk9zSWq6uvfhJGKikn15g24YrjpCCTv1vhWFcuKcv2odhFcS...yQtFXtadHnJ38CfoLq6PHZDrP7Uw16zaznquDF3zwf4nZWCfvLnH2oGWvxQTGojLt6SRWYDSZrB7VWnYhG3z1DCxf4S4BcEvtkQspPLXcSep5iN46TJdrvMcuc.png

If the number of buyers overpowers the number of supply of vegetables in Nigeria it shows a resistance level.

Screenshot_20210717-075017_1.png

It follows that resistance level is a point in price market where a relatively increase in price meets a turnaround point due an emergence of growing number of sellers who which to sell at a price different and lower than the current price of the market.

Resistance levels can be short-lived if new information comes to light that changes the overall market’s attitude toward the asset, or they can be long-lasting.

A reversal in price pattern occurs when there is a change in the trend movement to a new price direction.

Continuation Patterns

Continuation patterns can be a bullish or bearish pattern, it occurs mid price chart and it continues to move in the same direction until the pattern is complete.

Screenshot_20210717-091015_1.png

When a continuation pattern is formed after an uptrend, it means that the next continuation trend will be a downward trend.
