Retracements & Reversals The Keys to Successful Trading

If you trade any trend-following technique, you've probably wondered if the decline you're seeing is only a retracement or a complete reversal.
Understanding the critical differences in the retracements vs. reversals debate allows you to keep your winning trades longer and cut your losers earlier.

A retracement is a transient price movement in the opposite direction of the general trend.

Because retracements are only brief, they are short-term, countertrend swings that invariably result in price trading back in the original direction.
When the market's overall trend switches direction, this is referred to as a reversal.

Reversals are far more dramatic, longer-term changes in a market's direction, changing from bullish to bearish and vice versa.

If the price has reversed the other way, the market will likely continue forming a new trend.
