- **Uptrend Example**: In an uptrend, connect at least two higher lows to draw the trend line.
- **Downtrend Example**: In a downtrend, connect at least two lower highs to draw the trend line.
2. Using Trend Lines for Trading Signals
- **Price Approaching Trend Line**: Watch for the price to approach the trend line. In an uptrend, look for a bounce off the trend line as a potential buying opportunity. - **Confirmation**: Wait for confirmation from other indicators (e.g., moving averages, RSI) to validate the signal.
3. Risk Management and Profit Taking
- **Stop-Loss Placement**: In an uptrend, place a stop-loss order below the trend line to limit potential losses. - **Profit Taking**: Set profit targets or exit the trade when the price shows signs of trend exhaustion, such as breaking the trend line.
