D

Dark Cloud Cover

A bearish reversal pattern that continues the uptrend with a long white body . The next day opens at a new high then closes below the midpoint of the body of the first day.

Day Trading

A style of trading where all positions are cleared before the end of the trading day. Contrast this with position trading, where stocks or securities may be held for longer periods.

Declining

A market stage of a stock that is characterized by a downtrend with subsequently lower highs and lower lows.

 

 

Descending Triangle

A sideways price pattern between two converging trend lines in which the upper trendline is descending while the lower is flat. This is generally bearish pattern.

Directional Movement Indicator (DMI)

An indicator that plots a positive +DI line measuring buying as long as the +DI line . The Average Directional Index line is derived from this system and is based on the spread between the +DI and –DI lines.

Distribution            

The systematic selling of a security without significantly affecting the price. After an advance, a stock may start forming a top and trade sideways for an extended period. While this top forms, a security’s shares may experience distribution as well-informed traders or investors seek to unload positions. A quiet distribution period is usually subtle and not enough to put downward pressure on the price. More aggressive distribution will likely put downward pressure on prices.

Divergence

A situation that occurs when two lines on a chart move in opposite directions vertically. People often look for divergences by comparing a stock’s direction to the direction of its RSI, its MACD or its Stochastic Oscillator. There are two kinds of divergences: positive or negative. A positive divergence occurs when the indicator moves higher while the stock is declining. A negative divergence occurs when the indicator moves lower while the stock is rising.

Doji

A candlestick with a body so small that the open and close prices are equal. A Doji occurs when the open and close for that day are the same, or very close to being the same.

Double Top

A reversal chart pattern displaying two prominent peaks. The reversal is complete when the support trough is broken. The double bottom is a mirror image of the top.

Dow Jones Transportation Average ($TRAN)

An index consisting of 20 stocks in the transportation business. Originally the index only included railroads; now airlines and trucking companies are included. According to the Dow Theory , a new major high in the DJIA should be confirmed by a new major high in this index before it is considered a reliable signal .

Dow Jones Utilities Average ($UTIL)

An index used as a surrogate for bond prices. The DJUA is often a leading indicator of broad market trends since these stocks are interest-rate sensitive . Utility companies typically have large amounts of debt on which they pay interest rate changes sooner than other industries.

Downside Tasuki Gap
