I recently made a trade that reinforced the power of trendlines. A coin I follow was in a steady downtrend, consistently rejecting a diagonal resistance. I drew the trendline and waited for a real breakout with volume. On a strong bullish candle that closed above the trendline, I entered with a clear plan. The retest was smooth, and the price surged. This was a textbook example of how trendlines can guide your trades. What made this trade special was how clean everything was — from breakout to confirmation. Many traders draw trendlines wrong or force them to fit price. I’ve learned that accuracy in drawing is key. Always connect significant highs or lows and wait for a candle to close beyond the line. No guessing. The chart often speaks if you know how to listen. Mastering trendlines has given me an edge, especially in volatile markets.
