One of the basic tenets put forth by Charles Dow in the
Dow Theory
is that security prices do trend.
To consistently earn money in the stock market, you only want trade stock trends!
Trend following is a popular trading system. The method involves joining an established
trend with an aim to ride the stock in the direction it's heading and exiting when the
trend reverses.

A principle of
technical analysis
is that once a trend has been formed it will remain intact until broken.
That sounds much more simplistic than it is! The goal is to analyze the current
trend using trendlines and then either invest with the current trend until the
trendline is broken, or wait for the trendline to be broken and then invest with
the new (opposite) trend. Now it's time to try trendline stock screener in action!

After a significant price move (either up or down), prices will often
retrace a significant portion of the original move. As
prices retrace, support and resistance levels often occur at or near
the Fibonacci Retracement levels.
The Fibonacci Retracements
stock screener
can be very useful for traders to identify reversals on a stock chart.

|
There are many ways of using
moving averages
to trade but by far the
most common method is to trade when a short-term moving average
crosses over a longer term moving average.
An up signal is given when the short-term price
MA crosses above the long-term price MA. A down signal is given when the short-term price MA crosses
below the long-term price MA. Identify moving averages crossovers using powerful
stock screener!

The MACD
Histogram (Moving Average Convergence Divergence Histogram) provides
far earlier and more responsive signals than the original MACD.
The MACD Histogram is useful for anticipating changes in trend.
Alexander Elder describes the divergence between the peaks and bottoms
of share price and the MACD Histogram as the
strongest signal in
technical analysis.

Relative Strength Index (RSI)
is an extremely useful and popular momentum oscillator.
The best analysis of the RSI was found out: it is better to find a
divergence in which a new high is being made by the security, but the
RSI is going down to surpass its previous peak. This divergence means
that soon the reversal will come.

Bollinger Bands
are a technical analysis
tool invented by John Bollinger in the 1980s.
Bollinger bands form an envelope that expands and contracts around a simple
moving average. The expansion of the bands is based on the volatility of the
equity.
Having evolved from the concept of trading
bands, Bollinger Bands can be used to measure the highness or lowness
of the price relative to previous trades.
Trading with Bollinger Bands can produce a consistently profitable trading system.

is a price plotting technique that offers a quick and
easy method of identifiying the price movement of a currency pair.
This "at-a-glance" technique has been used in Japanese for hundreds of
years and has only recently come to the West. Most Forex traders use
candlesticks stock screener
for price predictions because it quickly shows the strength
and action of the bulls and bears over the price of a currency pair.
