    Study Notes

    • A big institution wants to get rid of 50 billion dollars in a bullish market.

    • They place orders to buy assets at specific discount rates (e.g., 60% off) to sell later when prices rise.

    • Trend lines form as a result of these orders, indicating support and resistance levels.

    • In a bullish market, the trend line is drawn below the price, connecting the market's lows (valleys).

    • The trend line serves as support, and when it is breached, it becomes resistance, causing the price to reverse.

    • The proper way to draw trend lines depends on the market trend: below the price in a bullish market, above the price in a bearish market.

    • The outermost boundary of the diagonal support and resistance is crucial when drawing trend lines.

    • When price breaks the outermost boundary, it may indicate a potential trend change.

    • The reaction point, where the price breaches and then retests the trend line, is an important concept.

    • The terms "peak" and "resistance" can be used interchangeably to refer to the highs of the market that create the trend line in a downtrend.
