Trend Indicator:

When the market moves in the upward direction then it is called uptrend and when the market moves in the downward direction then it is called downtrend and the tools which are used to find these trend are called Trend Indicators.

Volatility Indicator:

As the word suggest itself it is the fluctuations of the market which is taking place with different variations. It is nothing other than the movement of price when falls or rises very aggressively then it is denoted as the volatility of the market.

Bollinger Bands are very great indicators which are very useful for knowing the volatility as these bands take into consideration the different averages which help us assertain the volatility.

Question 2(b):

Briefly explain the reason why indicators are not advisable to be used as a standalone tool for technical analysis.

Answer 2(b):

Undoubtedly indicators are very great tool for analysing the market but it is always said that it should not be used as standalone tool as there is always due diligence which will be required for execution and finalizing the trade.

Also the Indicators don't always guarantee the success of trade and if we will be taking trade just based on the Indicators then for sure we are going to liquidate our account for sure.

Hence, indicators should always be used as an supporting tool for our trades and not the standalone tool.

Question 2(c):

Explain how an investor can increase the success rate of a technical indicator signal.

Answer 2(c):

The success rate of an investor can only increase when he will be using different types of indicators and mixing it to get good signals and then verifying it with other market news to validate it for a better chance of winning that trade.

Also with experience when we will be using it to improve our knowledge then definitely it will add on towards the success rate of our trade.

We must agree that no matter whatever we do but constant improvement in our knowledge is required as it will help us in long run to the successful journey of trading.
