Trendline

A trendline connects several lows (or highs) to visualize a price's direction on a chart.

Drawn under the lows in an uptrend, it acts as dynamic support; above the highs in a downtrend, as resistance. Its break can signal a trend change.

Example

Price bounces three times off an upward trendline, then breaks it: a warning sign.
