what is a bearish trend in forex, why is it called beaish?

Guys, how would you explain a bearish trend to a beginner?

A bearish trend is another name for a downward trend, and canbe spotted on the charts when your are seeing candlesticks arranged as lower lows and lower highs.

Look at the image i attached, the white candles represent price falling, while the green ones represent price rising. Notice how in a bearish trend we have lower whites and lower greens as if you are walking down some steps.

A bearish trend is so called because the candles are usually falling downwards just like when a bear is attacking, standing on its hind legs, and using its paws to strike downwards.
