The behavioral trend is compared to a behavior event, usually in the practice of this conjecturer, the last behavioral event of an interval of time to determine behavior outcomes.
The examples used come from the investment markets.
On a graph made of a two (2) week average NC's (Net Changes), the behavior tend point is the zero (0) or the zero (0) line. The NC when compared to zero (0) for each interval time indicates what the investor behavior will be for a later interval of time. If the 2 week average NC is positive ("+"), the investors intend to behave as if to make prices go "up". If the trend is left alone and not interfered with by an investment disaster, the prices will go up.
On a graph of the High, Low, and Close, a behavorial trend point is the average of the High and the Low. Since the distance between the High and Low is a behavioral continum, the High-Low average when compared to the close indicates what the investors intend to do next to the price. In an advancing market, with the High, Low, Close used from uptick weeks, the close when compared to the High-Low average indicates the prices are going up.
