Angle of Descent is the inverse of Angle of Ascent. However, the downtrend runs faster and steeper than the uptrend. WHY? Because the uptrend builds on uncertainty and doubt from retail groups, while Dark Pools and professional traders buy quietly with the that the stock is at bargain prices and will resume and uptrend. Their buying creates the bottoms and nudges price to the upside. Their activity provides near term price direction for YOU to trade shortly after the Dark Pools have accumulated and when pro traders nudge price upward anticipating and setting up for HFT gap ups and smaller funds VWAPS chasing the HFT gaps.
Angle of Descent will always be faster, steeper and end abruptly as prices for shares fall well below the fundamental levels.
Studying the indicators that professionals use that indicate extreme selling helps you avoid getting into a sell short that whipsaws causing huge losses. When the Dark Pools start to trigger and buy, they are often buying stocks that retail day traders are trying to sell short.
Retail traders often lack an understanding of who controls price.
When a stock falls sufficiently below its fundamental values, Dark Pools will start buying in a slow steady TWAP Time Weighted at Average Price, creating a Buy Zone that can be seen on the stock chart if you know what to look for. That is your warning signal not to try and sell short.
