People keep saying you have to show an upward trend, but just how important is it?
And I searched for it but I couldn't find anything.

However, on the upward trend issue in general my impression is that people who cite the value of an upward trend tend to have one themselves. I think it is (obviously) better to be strong throughout. Anyone who disputes that is either thinking wishfully or rationalizing their own performance.
