Is Trend Really Your Friend?

KNOW ABOUT “TREND”
“The trend is your friend” is one of the best known sayings, although it’s message is incomplete. The full version should be, “The
trend is your friend, until the end when it bends.” The trick with buying stock is to to be patient through the small changes in price until you can identify the point when the trend makes a change in direction or “bends.”

KNOW ABOUT “TREND”
A trend is not actually a strategy by itself; it’s just an added point of confluence that increases the probability of a trade. However, just randomly jumping in with a trending market is not an edge or a strategy. The longer the trend, the more and more people who are all doing the same thing i.e buying or selling, people who are not in the trend will look at this and think they should also begin buying or selling as that is what everyone is doing.

WHAT IS DOWNTREND?
A downtrend is a series of lower highs. At each of those points, sellers are deciding that they have had enough and it is time to get out of the stock. When these sellers perhaps urgently accept lower prices to dispose of their stock, the number (supply) of stocks pressures price lower and helps the trend to continue lower.

DOWNTREND IN ACTION
If an investor considered to buy this stock during the period shown in the chart, that investor would be buying the stock in a downtrend. There are many ways to lose money in the market, but I think that buying a stock in a down-trending has the highest probability. Of course the trader wants to be successful in making money. A smart trader will use trend following as his friend. He will wait until the trend changes direction with a new higher high price on the chart. This is the sign of a change from downward to upward trend.
WHAT IS UPTREND?
An uptrend can be defined as a chart with consistently higher lows.  At each higher low, traders are deciding that the pullback in price is a good time to purchase more of the stock. The buying pressure of more and more investors deciding to buy the stock adds more demand and so a higher stock price. This can be shown on the stock chart as the stock continues to move in an uptrend.

ACTION
CHANGE IN TREND IN
As a stock is mired in a downtrend, traders can look back and identify the most recent interim high price where the sellers turned price lower. At this point, I recommend that one consider buying the stock if and only if it goes up above that most recent high price. The current price rising above the most recent high price is what signifies that the trend in price may have changed from down to up.
