There will be a lot of different types of trading discussed when a person enters ETF. One of the often discussed types of trading is ETF Trend Trading. If you have taken a course or read about ETF trading, you already know that to be successful you need to do a technical analysis of a sector. This and other historical information helps you to spot patterns and trends in the sector in which you are trading.
If you have started trading and are doing the analytical work to spot trends and patterns, and are acting on those trends, you are already trend trading. It is not a secret strategy or way to conduct trades. A successful trader does their homework and acts on the trends that they see coming in the sector, or industry they are trading within. So, let's take a look at trends and how you can use them more effectively.
When people do a historical analysis of a sector before they begin trading, they may look at a specific block of time. Some people do an analysis on a three or five year period and note the different trending indicators in that period of time. But, what is a sector, has a significant gain or loss every seven years? If a person has not included those years in their analysis, they can miss an opportunity to make a significant gain in their portfolio.
If a person enjoys doing analytical studies on sectors. Yes, some people do. It is easy to get bogged down in the analytics and indicators of sectors. To avoid this, it is good to set parameters for the amount of study and research one will do before taking advantage of some of the more obvious trends that are evident in a sector.
When a technical analysis is done on a section that covers one to three years, it is called short-term trends. These trends are more volatile when analyzed by themselves because it is hard to spot a long term trend or pattern within them. Some sectors that have a yearly upswing due to a product presentation will have a clear trend line for those times. But, it will be hard to tell what the long term trend for that sector is.
Intermediate term trends are the trends that occur within a long term trend. When analyzing trends, if the reason for an intermediate trend can be effectively identified, and a pattern found, there is a significant opportunity to make gains on those blips that occur in the sector.
Successful traders do not act without some background information on the sector in which they are trading. When a person hops in and out of trades without doing the research that is required to be effective, they may have some wins. But, they will have more lost opportunities than a person who knows when a trend is going to reverse and can take proactive steps before it starts to free-fall.
Many people who have a long term ETF are looking for steady growth in their ETF. While this is a very low risk ETF, if a person knows when it is going to reverse, they have an opportunity to save money by moving before the trend reverses. - 29969
