MARKET TRENDS (DOW THEORY)





Bear Markets of the German DAX index

Bear markets are shown below. Decision point is using 6 and 10 MA (weekly 17-43MA, daily 20-50MA) average on the long term charts to identify bear markets[1][2].

Major bull and bear markets result from fundamental changes in supply and demand[3]. Long term(primary) trends are driven by fundamental factors.
