How to Draw Trend Lines
Basic Steps:
1. Identify Key Points:
- You need to identify at least two swing points in the market to draw a correct trend line.
- In a downtrend, consecutive highs are connected by a downward trend line.
2. Clarity of Levels:
- The points must be clear, and the line should not be enforced if the points do not match precisely.
3. Appropriate Time Frame:
- It is preferable to use larger time frames such as 4 hours (4H) or daily (Daily) for clear and reliable trend lines.
