[edit] Inconsistency

Oleg Alexandrov, says he “removed the technical analysis part, that should be in a dictionary,”

Maybe so, but how is this any different than the definition that Oleg left in about Statistics?

It looks inconsistent to me to pull out one and leave the other.

  • In Statistics, a trend is a long-term movement in time series data after other components have been accounted for;
  • In technical analysis the existing general direction of movement of energy expressed as the relationship between prices. "The trend is your friend!” Dr George Lane

Trends are at the very core of technical analysis. GT

[edit] from VfD:

There is probably a decent encyclopaedic article to be written on trends. This isn't it, nor is it a beginning for it. --fvw* 02:20, 2005 Jan 4 (UTC)

  • Comment: I agree that there is probably something to be said on trend. I stubbed a piece on statistical trends. Is this useful or would a direct link to trend estimation make more sense? --Tony Sidaway|Talk 02:36, 4 Jan 2005 (UTC)
    • Hmm, stick an attention tag on it and you have my keep vote. --fvw* 03:15, 2005 Jan 4 (UTC)
  • Keep, needs expansion. Megan1967 00:39, 5 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, it'll grow. Wyss 03:01, 5 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, a stub doesn't make a delete. Andrew pmk 23:27, 9 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Proposal: Absent further objections or votes other than keep, I propose to delist this article tomorrow, 6 January. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 04:21, 5 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Yep... Wyss 05:12, 5 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Quotes

Should the second quote, made by the same person who made the third quote, be separately attributed to the quoter?

Nice job, thanks!! GT

[edit] A bug in "what links here"?

The links (for example from bear market) don't appear. --Pgreenfinch 10:31, 26 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Both bull market and bear market work ok for me. GT

[edit] displaying trends

Nothing has been noted about conventions for displaying trends. Is the data displayed left to right (as in earliest to current as numerical hard data, or as a graphical display. 66.193.169.195 13:43, 28 September 2005 (UTC)Dave Dayton
