🧭 Is the market trending or moving sideways? Aroon helps you tell by tracking how many candles have passed since the highest high and lowest low within a set period.

Its two lines, Aroon Up and Aroon Down, range from 0 to 100%. Aroon Up staying at 100% for several candles signals a strong uptrend. Aroon Down at 100% points to a downtrend.

📊 Aroon doesn't measure the size of price moves or account for trading volume, so it works best alongside other tools.

Our new article explains how to read Aroon signals and use them in your trading.

The rebound runs out of steam as buyers struggle to break through resistance or hold above it, and the downtrend resumes.

Our new article explains how to spot a Dead Cat Bounce and trade the pattern.
