According to Demark, the uptrend line is drawn on the lows, and the downtrend line on the highs. Trend lines drawn on 5-minute or 15-minute charts are much less important than trend lines drawn on higher timeframes, such as 1 hour, 4 hours, or daily.To trade with the “Tom Demark broken trend” system, you need to draw a trend line on the hourly chart and set the indicator “Momentum” with the level line 100.
