# 3. Technical Trading (Charting)

Technical trading is largely based on charts and looking for opportunities to enter pair trades that look like they have significant upside. For example, a trader might look at a pair like long BTC / short XRP on multiple timeframes (4hr / 1D / 1W) and draw lines for moving averages and support and resistance levels. From there they would evaluate the chart and conclude if there is a trend that they would like to ride. This approach is often combined with the other two approaches above.
