Razin S.A.’s article» Что должен знать разработчик на языке python, работая в сфере data science» states the following points: Machine learning is another field of computerization development. Its main task is the computer’s ability to learn to recognize faces, voices, select pictures or movies on YouTube, taking into account the user’s previously watched videos. That is, it should not work only using pre-written code. [1]

The movement of the price of a particular stock can behave the same way for a few days, a few weeks, or even months based on demand and supply.
The direction of price movement is termed a trend. The trend can be upward or downward. An upward trend is formed when the price movement makes higher swing highs and higher swing lows. A downward trend is formed when the price movement makes lower swing lows and lower swing highs. The trends are measured for the short-term, medium-term or intermediate-term, and long term. The short-term trend can be the price movement in the same direction for a few days to a few weeks; the medium-term trend can be the price movement in the same direction for a few weeks to a few months; and the long-term trend can be the price movement in the same direction from a few months to a few years.
