How to identify the trend
For free trading education, go to www.tradingwithrayner.com
You know an uptrend consists of higher highs and higher lows.
But when you attempt to define the trend with this approach, you often face subjectivity in identifying the trend.
So...
Is there a way to define a trend more objectively?
Yes and I'll teach you how to do it in a step by step manner.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this week’s video post. As always, comments are welcomed and encouraged. Cheers!
Thanks for watching!

dude this is so helpful! i've been trying to learn forex all day and this is by far the most helpful video i've seen! thanks!!!
Really enjoyed this lesson. Excellent clock analogy which helps you to remember the strength of the trend. Great lesson and thanks Rayner for all your video lessons.
I didn't know how to use the MA until now. Thanks Rayner! Very appreciated. Even if its been over a year since you posted this Hehe!
Very simple. Please imagine wall clock or compass in mind and draw North, south, East and west., then see M.A. if M.A pointing vertically higher toward in between north & east, then consider M.A pointing 2 o clock.

How does that help you identify the trend?
Thank you Rayner!!! I am learning a lot from all your videos and training lessons in general.
Thank you, I am a newbie and starting learning
Thank you, very clear easy way to see the trend.
Thank you so much for sharing your blessing Rayner :) Bless you :)
Extremely good video! Very objective way of defining trend and very original too. Good job Rayner!
Thank you Rayyner !
Thank you, love your videos
many thanks Mr Rayner; it's very useful and important information
Simple and nice explanation. Keep it up.
I really like your videos, would you please let us know what time frame chart you are referring to when you give your examples. Love your style.
Wow thank you Rayner so simple yet so effective. Very useful information, thank you for all that you do for the trading community. I find your trading style amazing. Thank you for all your teachings once again.
thank you very much sir for sharing amazing information
you are a great teacher
In example 3, a double bottom can be clearly seen. Hence, I would go long immediately instead of waiting for any further confirmation or reversal.
Greetings from hongkong ...thanks a lot Rayner , hoping to learn from your vaults of info ..all the best
Very very nice explanation .. thank you. !!💐💐
nice video, would love to see one about how we can properly use this information though, such as 2 MA's being weak and the short being strong for instance, how would you use this information to your advantage?
Good stuff. Thanks so much.
Hi, I'm new to trading and got introduced to your videos.I am learning quite a bit! You're a great teacher! Question... what would you define as a long term trend, a medium term trend or a short term trend? Timeframe? Like, how long would you hold the short term position for?
Awesome explanation !!! can you also help out to understand pullback strategies w.r.t higher TF's ?
Real nice xplanation even for experienced guys . As usual you are too good ! Thanks ! You are proving the old saying , " TEACH TO LEARN " . THANKS !

thanks rayner,good explanation.question,if the short term trend like the 20ema pointing steep down, is it ok and trade and a shorter time flame,thank you.
Hi Rayner, Thanks for all your hard work. I need your help to clarify the following: If the MA is pointing lower, it is a down trend. 4 o'clock and lower means downtrend is weak. What then constitute a strong downtrend based on MA? Thanks
Hello Rayner, I am verry happy to get you as my teacher in SM. I have a question for you: Can i use EMA instead of Moving Average to find the trend or to get into a Trade? Or It is Simple moving average what you usually talk about in ur vdo's or EMA Pls reply Rayner. Thank you.

Very nicely explained.. 👍👍💐💐
@rayner teo if i am ensure or does not have time to wait for the retest,breakout and entry(a bullish engulfing or bearish engulfing is formed),can i just used the 200ma,20ma or 100 ma to define the trend is bullish or bearish without waiting for breakout..
great video. but I'm confused why you need the 2 higher mas when you said on every example the 20 ma was pointing down or up and that gave the decision to go long or short? I'm trying to 8nderstand how to utilise the two higher trends
AWSOM RAYNER , GRT VDO , SO HELPFUL TO US .....THNKS FOR SHARING UR KNWLDG WITH US :-)
Hi Rayner, you produce some great training and i entirely agree with Martin`s theory as it is always in my thoughts as i watch training of this nature. I would like to ask, in some of your training you are using SMA & in others you use EMA, curious to understand why that is please? Thx Tony
very helpful thanks bro

Interesting comment - thanks
Hey Rayner! I like your videos a lot. What do you suggest: How many periods should I take to determine of the trend and slope is up? Like 3 periods pointing at 2 o'clock or higher enough?
@econ8134

Thanks for the quick reply! But what i meant is, using a 200 MA, how many periods of an 2 o'clock up slope + PA above this 200 MA do you wait do confirm this bullishness? Of course you have a set of signal for long trades not only MA. Still: The angle of the 200 MA needs to be good. But for how many periods? Is 3 consecutive periods enough (very start of good angle) or do you wait until the slope of 200 MA has shaped for at least 50 periods a good angle? Would like to know that.
Very simple good
actually telling whether the trend is strong just by looking at its slope is also very subjective....i think a more better way to put it is to determine whether a trend is strong by looking at how the price is respecting it (like if price is respecting 20ma, then it is very strong and if the price is respecting the 50ma, then it is moderately strong)
can you please tell me how to check 2 o clock and 4 o clock when using Moving averages ?
Power lah abang ...
hello. can someone explain how are the MA lines are not pointing 2 and 4 oclock direction (example 1 and 2)? i'm confused.
thank u
Hi sir,can I use this for crude intraday alsoo
hi rayner , what MA it is ...EMA or SMA... thanks
Would you suggets the same MAs for Cryptos?
Hey can u explain the 2 o’clock and 4 o’clock ?
How do you know when to buy before an uptrend takes place?
How do you know the trend isn't over after the second higher high?
Perfect 👌 👌
at 1:48 you said, higher higher, higher low can you please explain
I like that.
I like very much your videos, but there's one thing that i wanna point out about this video: "If MA is pointing 2 o'clock and higher..." The thing is that visible charts are defined by specific time frame, and the slope is affected by aspect ratio of the chart. And that leaves the possibility for different results if the time frame varies. Better way saying this would be for example: "Uptrend is strong if MA is trending up 1.23 %/day on average"

Hey Rayner, love your videos. I'm so glad I found you! Do you find the daily or weekly charts more useful in this context? I think weeklies give a clearer overall picture but perhaps you have a different view?

+Anne-Marie Loves Fruit The basic idea is the same in all time frames. However, one should be looking at multiple time frame simultaneously. It is advisable to find the trend using the 4 hr chart and finding entry point using the 1 hr chart.
Rayner, a silly Q, the MA you are using is EMA or SMA.......good vid bro

Very simple. Please imagine wall clock or compass in mind and draw North, south, East and west., then see M.A. if M.A pointing vertically higher toward in between north & east, then consider M.A pointing 2 o clock.
Hey Rayner, great video. Ive been watching a bunch of your videos and i saw that in your other videos you spoke about using only a 50 Ema and a 20 Ema to define the trend. Which moving average strategy would you say is better? thanks a bunch.
