eBacktesting - Learning: Trend Lines

eBacktesting - Learning: Trend Lines helps you spot clean trend lines automatically, using real swing points (highs/lows) and confirming a line only after it’s “respected” multiple times.
What you’ll see on the chart
- Uptrend lines (support) when price is making higher lows
- Downtrend lines (resistance) when price is making lower highs
- A simple way to study structure, spot “respect” of a trend line, and understand when a trend may be weakening
- Trend line breaks are based on candle closes, not just quick wicks, so the signals are clearer
You can also keep a few older lines on the chart, making it easy to review past reactions and build pattern recognition.
These indicators are built to pair perfectly with the eBacktesting extension, where traders can practice these concepts step-by-step. Backtesting concepts visually like this is one of the fastest ways to learn, build confidence, and improve trading performance.
