Is the trend really your friend ?

The trend is your friend until it changes direction. The pullbacks during the trend is the key, but any of those pullbacks may end up being the change in direction.

I don't think so. If you're trading based on reversal movement so trend is not your friend because you will wait for reversal movement to open position in order to maximize profit when you entry position. But it is right,all traders must know the beginning and the end of the trend so they could make preparation for entry or exit from the market so they could minimize the loss if the market doesn't move as your expectation.

We need to know and understand the trends in the Forex markets. This is because if we are able ti understand them well then a time will also come when we will be in a position to do better trades.

It's good to predict tendency movement of price because you can gain high number of pips in profit when you could know and understand movement of price. So, it is right that trend can be your friend if you could find out the right timing to open and close position to maximize profit and minimize loss in every transaction.

With this step you can achieve maximum profit. Timing is an important things in trading. Especially when the release schedule of news that is important from a particular country. So you can watch while the time.

It is right that right timing is important thing in forex trading because if your timing was right then you can gain maximum profit in every transaction and also, you need to cut loss soon when the timing is right when the price has been reversal in its movement. If you worked with trend, so right timing would determine the best time for entry and exit to get profit from bearish or bullish movement.
 
If one is a momentum/breakout type trader, then sure move with the trend whether it lasts for 5 minutes or 5 years.

If one is an anti-trend/contrarian trader, then your biggest job is to look for trend reversals.

I prefer the anti trend strategies more than the momentum ones.
 
one thing it's confirm that, if you can understand the Trends very well, market is in your hand. Nail fuller in his price action strategy made it mostly based on trend analysis, when trend says the market conditions, it also easy to predict the future movement of the market following trend and chart history
 
It is obviously simple logic that if we are able to trade with finding the right trend then it can make plenty of profits for us, but if we go against the trend then it's losses that's mostly coming, so Trend indeed is a friend, but it does not take time to turn into enemy.

If we will try to do our trading according to the trends that are present in the markets then trading will become a lot more easier for us and also we will start getting a good income :)
