Traditional trendlines are very subjective. It really depends on the person drawing it.

Look at TD Lines. Less drawing but more objective. Drawing from right to left rather than left to right gives you lines that are closer to price action.

May also want to look at Mouteki's method.

It's like Family Feud. You must try and draw the same trendlines most other people have drawn.
That is why it's good to take a look at others' charts from time to time.
Thanks for the hard work walb99!

Hi, I have seen this thread before, and just couldn't help but ask a question or two, as well as give a pointer or so..

I notice that you are drawing these trend lines and posting them with regularity. It looks great, however, as trading is based on decisions, why not point out the lines that help to make trade decisions?

As a tip, some of your charts are getting littered with trend lines and to give a better example of what a good trend line is, it might be better to draw a few of the good ones, rather than every line that lines up.

The thread started out well, will a few lines, but the last few pages are like a trend line mine field!

Perhaps provide some insight as to how you personally might use these multiple trend lines for clarity?

I can't see how this helps in trading, rather than to confuse the readers as to what is a correct trend line.

None the less, if it works for you, power to you.

Good Luck!

you are invited to post some of your charts with trendlines as well
