All instruments have personalities, some are much more consistent than others as far as certain Price Patterns. GE is one of 30 stocks that I watch looking for recurring patterns of reversing trend. Indicators has there place like TSI peaking out at certain values, High Volume seeking bottoms, slopes of moving averages offer confirmed trend, but finding change of trend get easier when you have certain ideas of when there is reoccurring patterns. How you enter is done through your back testing then forward testing.

Yes buy uptrend + wait or sell sometimes in a bear market ; as IBD notes 200 dma can help. Not a prediction.
Wisdom is profitable to direct.

Price analysis of swing pivots would tell. Of course not 100% accurately.

The algo is: The last down trend swing high pivot is taken out and price make a new higher low pivot and then takes out the previous high pivot.

It couldn't be easier to detect when a trend is starting. Just detect the end of the previous trend.

Except time-wise is pretty inefficient.
