Trajectory and Directional Price Trends

Thinking about the meaning of trajectory and how it relates to directional price trends.

A trajectory is the path followed by a projectile flying or an object moving under the action of given forces. For example, the curved path along which something (such as a bullet or rocket) moves through the air. In thinking of directional price trends, you may consider how the beginning of the trajectory is steep sloping as it gains velocity and then it loses momentum and begins to level off and eventually drifts downward (if it doesn’t hit something along the way).
