thank you for this quick guide. I have a couple of doubts regarding interpretation of trendlines: (a) I generated a trendline for energy sales and it was horizontal. (b) I also generated the R-square value (0.34) for the trendline but couldn't really understand how to go about it. thanks!

Love your videos

[@johannesjohannes4917]

You the best📌

[@donaldpaintinganddesigns8958]

I really enjoyed the explanation

[@Nbates85]

Do you ever create a trendline on the opposite side and use that to help guide you towards where you think the next point of convergence (or tipping point) might be? I did one for the current uptrend on SPY using this method on a 6m 2h chart, using the 6/27 and 7/29 peaks and 7/13 and 7/26 troughs, and the stock played almost perfectly within these lines. It also indicated at the point of convergence that the stock should hit around 420-421 which she did and is now above the trendline and continuing to make new highs. Similar to creating a Bollinger Band. Would be curious to get your thoughts and really appreciate your video, it was solid.

[@rkclivetrading4553]

Thank you so much, thumbs up, subscribe and bells 🔔!!!!

[@amisiamb]

Are peaks and trough the same as pivot points? If we take troughs for example, I can see that for each trough, the previous and following bar has a higher low, which it what a pivot point is.

[@davidmaikou3556]

Do you draw the trend line points from the intra day low or from the closing price?

[@orizzontetrade6780]

Thanks for the clear explanation you are providing but can I know please which frame is the best to be considered?

[@LinusLimMJ]

trendlines can be used for different time frames. daily, intraday or weekly

[@Anshkumar-cb3cs]

Thanx sir

[@irankurd8797]

Hi bro; What is the name of the software or chart site?

[@abdikani_Curious]

You have done it.

[@brentholt6826]

Hi mate just watched you trend line video. I'm a beginner. You only follow the green candles not the red ones is that correct

[@talifhanitshithavhana929]

Thanks

[@manishsatapathy4165]

Are trendlines only in intraday or in swing trading also?

[@narasimhamjv1609]

Is choosing first two peaks or troughs a must? or say most deirable ?

[@no-de3lg]

I can’t determine if I choose the right troughs or highs since most of the charts are shaped weirdly not like a uniform triangles please help how do i accurately locate the highs and lows confidently

[@giwrgospagiatis8849]

When you say that the line has to fit to the market unless it is not valid,what do you mean?

[@nimishbagga7738]

Why did you stop making videos, this channel is a treasury for traders

[@tumelomalau6141]

[@SoldierTrading]

what is more important to you mate, the wicks on a trend line higher time frames or the body close/open

[@parham_cripto]
