Drawing Tools

Technical drawing tools - aside from the aforementioned trend lines - are both popular and diverse.

Most of these drawing tools are meant to identify areas of importance, including support and resistance levels.

Technical Analysis Tools

One technical analysis tool used by forex traders is "trend lines."

Trend lines can be both simple and effective tools in assessing the direction of a market's price trend; an upward straight line is drawn by connecting at least two successive lows, but preferably more.

As a guideline, each successive point generally should be higher than the previous one, with the prolongation of the line help evaluate the path along which the market may move.

A method to recognize potential support lines/levels is in an upward trend.

However, downward lines are also charted by connecting two points or more. The validity of a trend line may be partially associated to the number of connection points.

Trend lines - whether diagonal or horizontal - are the most basic drawing tools available to traders.

However, they can become more and more complex, and often originate from complicated mathematical foundations.
