## Trends
* we can't trade from patterns all the time, they are quite rare
* trends patterns will guide us more often
* patterns can be housed within trends
* if we can find the trend, we can ride the trend for profit

</p>
<br>
### Consolidation
* give us a strong area of trade where traders have been before
* area in the chart moving sideways
* we can use consolidation as a guide for our entry/exit points
* sometimes preceed breakup
* where buyers/sellers are at equilibrium and can't last forever
* use these levels for our stop loss levels
<br>

</p>
<br>
### Support and resistance
* support and resistance are simply significant price levels
* resistance can become support if a price breaks through that level in an uptrend
* vice versa for a downtrend
### Moving averages
* SMA: arithmetic mean of prices over a given time period
* EMA: weighted and give more importance to recent prices
### Relative strength index (RSI)
* plots the relative strength of the price compared to previous prices
* momentum indicator
* above 70: price is relatively expensive (overbought)
* below 30: price is relatively cheap (oversold)
* can't predict how the price will change in the future
### Average true range
* measure of daily price volatility
* tell us the true amount the price could move in a given day
* largest probably move for one day based on previous data
* can be used to set our stop loss and give the trade some breathing room

## How to trade with trends
1. Identify the market trends
2. Ask where are the main areas of trade
- where is support and resistance?
- any chart pattern?
3. Make your entry based on the daily trade action
- is the candlestick telling us that the trade will go in the direction of our trade?
- is the trade bullish or bearish based of candlestick patterns?
