Most stock market traders have a favorite technical indicator.

The one that they have the most confidence in. The one that Josh Allen Womens Jersey , from experience, they trust the most. Or the one that they always look at first.

For some it is the RSI. Others like the Stochastic or the MACD . Or one of the literally hundreds of other indicators that are available.

Well, I love the MACD. And the Stochastic is also a favorite.

But there is one indicator that I refer to more often than any other. However, before I tell you what it is Jim Kelly Womens Jersey , it is important that this discussion is placed in context.

I always stress with the traders that I mentor that the most important part of your analysis is price action.

By this I mean that the very first thing you should look at is the shape of the stock's chart. And any patterns that you may be able to identify.

In particular, look for trends and consolidation. Candlestick reversal patterns and support and resistance levels. And be particularly aware of all time or 52-week highs or lows.

Also, be on the lookout for double tops and bottoms and triangles and head and shoulder patterns.

Well, whilst this might surprise some of you, I believe it is volume.

You see volume is an indication of the strength of price action. A market needs high volume or increasing volume to sustain a movement in price.

So we want to see volume moving in the direction of the price. Increasing both in an uptrend and also a downtrend.

But realize that it takes more effort to push prices higher than it does to cause them to drop. So increasing volume is more significant in an uptrend than a downtrend.

If volume is diverging from the trend [going down instead of up] then we would normally not carry out any further analysis. Because the lack of volume means that there is a lower probability of price movement in the direction of the current trend.

Note however Authentic Cody Ford Jersey , that divergence can be an indication that a trend is about to end. So this can be an early sign of a reversal
