Just a brief comment:

A while ago I read a part of the Chick Goslin "Intelligent Futures Trading" book and
in chapter 5-Learning and Chapter 7-Charts, Chick refers to his indicators used and
also to an easy way to determine if we are in an Up trend or not
(then especialy see Chapter 7- chart Pg1 on pag 95 - Review of April Cattle(5 Jan))

The Direction Line(49SMA):
The first thing I do when looking at a chart is to go back ten weeks and circle
a day 47 or 48 trading days ago. This gives me an instant view of how easy or
difficult it would be for a trend to change.
