High Value

Introduction:

The High Value in trading represents the highest price reached by an asset during a specific time frame. It plays a key role in determining the volatility and strength of price movements. Traders monitor the high value to assess breakout potential and market strength.

How does it work?

High_t = max(P_high)

Where:

• P_high is the highest price observed within the selected time period.

Interpretation of High Value:

1. Trend Confirmation: A rising series of highs indicates an uptrend, whereas lower highs may signal weakening momentum.

2. Breakout Strategy: If a security breaks above previous high values, it suggests strong buying momentum.

3. Resistance Identification: High values often act as resistance levels, where price struggles to move higher.

Practical Applications:

1. Identifying Breakout Points

2. Setting Stop-Loss and Targets

3. Momentum Trading
