  • Sell signal: in the supertrend indicator if the supertrend line is showing the trend is bearish. then if the Trix line crossing below the zero line then you can take a short sell signal.

Strategy 3:

  • Buying signal: if the market is in a bearish trend and the and the share price is touching lower low and the Trix line is not touching lower low. this is the bullish divergence. and the share price may rise soon. if the share price is started rising then you can buy the stock.
  • Short Sell signal: if the market is in the bullish trend and the stock price is touching higher high and the Trix line is not touching higher high. this is the bearish divergence. and the share price may fall soon. if the stock price is started falling then you can take a short-selling position.
