[Dr Faiz]

Dow theory  can be represented in a line chart.

Dow theory is used to see Primary trend in the market . It could be either a Bull or a Bearish trend . This primary trend may last up to 2 years or shorter depending on any event that may stop the trend or reverse it . Any changes in the primary trend in the opposite direction is called a secondary trend. this may last up to a few weeks or two months. Finally there is the daily fluctuations which may be in any direction but it does not affect the primary trend.
