against the trend or following the trend are two things that are indeed used to open positions according to their respective opinions when we fight against the brand then we will have the risk of going wrong when we go but by following the direction of the trend we will tend to get better results. maximum

For this problem, it depends on the condition of the market price movement when the market price tends to be flat then use a technique that uses an oscillator so you can easily counter the trend, if indeed the direction of the body tends to go straight up or down then you should do the trend follow technique

for me the most important thing is to follow the direction of the trend but maybe when we experience a condition that cannot be analyzed maybe we can use an indicator such as an oscillator to open a counter trend position or rather is a condition where the market is experiencing a sideway and it is possible to trade foreign exchange

When you are able to analyze well, you should only use trend follow when you use trend follow, of course you will be able to follow very difficult market movements. When you use other counter trends, you will lose a lot later

depending on market conditions, if market conditions allow for a counter trend, yes indeed you have to use a counter trend, if market conditions require you to follow the trend, yes, you must use trend follow.

it all depends on your taste but if my advice you should use just follow the trend because by using the follow trend then you will be able to follow the price for sure and you will get a clear profit

what is certain is that both are good depending on the condition of the market trend at that time because sometimes the counter trend is also useful when the market is sideway too

In my opinion, the most appropriate strategy is to follow the trend because if we use this strategy we will not minimize the losses, but it must be remembered that if the price is too high, don't use this, you can lose big when the price reverses direction and if the price is too high, you can use a counter strategy. This trend and strategy will produce a lot of profit when the price reverses direction.

all of that can only be achieved with conditions in the field when we find a good trend then we can use trend follow but when we find a sideway market movement then we can use counter trend

It seems I will choose to follow the trend when you counter the trend with you, it's okay. But it's better to just follow the trend just to be safe

for me the counter trend is not suitable for short-term traders or for long-term traders because even for the short term we should use trend follow

indeed the most important thing is when you follow the trend when you follow the trend then you will be able to maximize your open position so that you get maximum and many goals and of course you don't go against the direction

it's better to use a follow trend because by using a follow trend we will get something good and we will tend to be able to get maximum profit because we always follow the prevailing trend

counter trend is suitable for the short term while following the trend for the long term lest we forget about it so we must be able to do it all properly and correctly according to our abilities

I prefer to follow the trend direction because if we follow the trend direction we can easily open positions correctly and accurately because it will always be right on target.
