Trend Channel
A trend channel places two boundaries around a market’s price movement. In an uptrend, one line may connect rising lows while a roughly parallel line follows the highs. The lower boundary can show where buyers have previously returned, while the upper one marks where rallies have slowed. A downtrend channel uses the same idea in the opposite direction. The lines are drawn from past prices, so different analysts may place them slightly differently. A break outside the channel can show that the old pace of movement has changed, but it may also be temporary. The channel organises the trend rather than predicting its destination.
Trend Following
Trend following is a trading approach that tries to join an established price move and remain with it while the trend continues. The rules may use breakouts, moving averages, or recent highs and lows. A system could buy after price reaches a new 50-day high and leave after it falls below a shorter-term low. Trend followers do not need to explain why the market is rising or predict the final top. Their difficulty comes during sideways periods, when repeated false starts can produce several small losses. The method depends on occasional sustained moves being large enough to outweigh trades that fail.
Trend line
A line drawn on a price chart connecting a series of higher lows or lower highs to indicate the direction of a trend.
Triangular Arbitrage
Three exchange rates should agree with one another mathematically. If they do not, triangular arbitrage may be possible. Imagine EUR/USD and USD/JPY imply that EUR/JPY should trade at 165, but the direct market briefly quotes 165.20. A trader may exchange euros into dollars, dollars into yen, and yen back into euros to capture the mismatch. All three transactions must be completed quickly because automated systems usually remove the difference almost immediately. The apparent profit also has to exceed spreads, fees, and execution changes. This form of arbitrage uses inconsistencies among three currency pairs rather than predicting which currency will rise.
Triffin Dilemma
A global reserve currency must be available in large amounts so other countries can use it for trade, savings, and financial contracts. The issuing country may supply that currency by running external deficits. Over time, however, those same deficits can weaken confidence in the currency’s value. This conflict is called the Triffin Dilemma, named after economist Robert Triffin. He applied the idea to the US dollar and the earlier Bretton Woods system. The dilemma is not a prediction that a reserve currency must collapse. It describes the tension between the world’s need for international liquidity and the issuing country’s need to preserve confidence in its money.
TRIN
TRIN, also called the Arms Index, compares stock-market breadth with trading volume. It uses the number of rising and falling shares, then adjusts that relationship by the volume traded in each group. A reading below 1 generally means rising shares are receiving a larger share of volume. A reading above 1 points to more volume flowing through falling shares. Very high or low readings can show unusually strong selling or buying pressure. The indicator can change sharply during the day, so one reading should be viewed in context. TRIN measures the balance of market activity, not the direction of one individual stock.
