Simply put, "bullish" means an investor believes a stock or the overall market

will go higher. Conversely, "bearish" is the term used for investors who believe

a stock will go down or underperform. A bullish investor is often referred to as

a bull and a bearish investor as a bear.

trade entry and exit signals that is considered reliable. It is the foundation for

all technical analysis and the data that is plotted graphically of a particular

stock.

buying more stocks is wrong. It all depends on the sentiment of the

investor.

Bearish- The usual notion that the market is bearish when sellers are

selling more stocks is wrong. It all depends on the sentiment of the

investor.

What makes a market bullish or bearish:


The aggressiveness of buyers and sellers drives the Market sentiment.

Market sentiment refers to the overall attitude of investors toward a particular

security or financial market. It is the feeling or tone of a market, or its crowd

psychology, as revealed through the activity and price movement of the

securities traded in that market.


Characteristics of Bullish and Bearish markets:

● Bull markets tend to last for extended periods of time and are marked by

increased demand for securities, rising corporate profits and GDP, and

the market to become bearish.

changes. Negative investor sentiment leads to a bearish market whereas a
