There are many ways to analyze the market and identify trading opportunities.

Regardless of the trading strategy a trader adopts, it is important to remind himself of some constant principles. These principles help to open positions that follow the direction of the market at the best possible price level.

As a classic trading motto says, "The trend is your friend" and successful investors tend to follow the market momentum and trade in line with the current trend.

A popular method investors use to ensure they are following market momentum is to first identify a market trend and start paying close attention to pullback market events, and then take a breakout trade.

Remember that trends can have three directions: up, down, and sideways.

Upward movement is often referred to as an "uptrend" and reflects a bullish or positive price movement.

Downward movements reflect a bearish or downtrend, while sideways movements are considered range bound and usually move between a bottom and a top.

Ideally, in order to maximize the chances of success, traders want to get in on a trend early rather than when it hits a top.

The first step in trading with market momentum is to use the charts to confirm the trend over time, as this will indicate whether there is some sort of driving force behind the market.

In order to ensure a higher success rate with your trades, it is important to know where the market is currently trading when you open a position.

One of the easiest ways to determine and define the direction of the market is to use trend lines. Chart analysts will draw lines at various angles directly on the chart in order to define and find the most accurate trend.

When the market is moving up, or going through an uptrend, the trend line will slope upward. This is when investors will consider being on the bullish or long side of the market and trade until the end of the uptrend. In a downtrend, the trendline will slope downward.

If two highs are connected by a trend line, when the second high is lower than the first, this indicates a declining market.

The market is considered to be in a downtrend when a falling low and a falling high are constructed, at which point the trader may consider shorting the market, i.e. selling the market.
