How to Know When a Trend is Over

#1
There are several things to take into consideration when determining whether a trend is about to end or has ended: (assuming trend was an up trend)

1. Is price still above the supporting major trend line.
2. Price has stayed above previous major low (higher highs and higher lows).
3. Up waves are longer and stronger than the down waves.

7) Unable to make new highs or new lows even after multiple tries (Double/Triple bottoms/tops)
8) Major MA crossovers in the Time frame you are trading (usually with a big opposite move). There are few MA's used all over the world from retail kids to institutional traders/banks
9)Major fundamental news marking a big opposite move on Time frame your are trading. (Higher the better; more probability)
