if in fact, of course, follow trend is better with a long-term note style, but if for scalping then counter trend can also be a balanced choice with follow trend.
Scalping traders are always looking for a buy and ride area, no matter the long trend.

however scalping traders must also pay attention to the safety of their trading not to get carried away by the opposite trend.

actually the choice of a trend style depends on the time frame used and also the trading style so you can choose the more suitable one because the counter trend does not mean against the global trend if you use a small time frame.

in my opinion follow what has been widely used by traders in general and follow more general trends and are used even though the way to identify and view a trend is different.

if we discuss in general and long term then it's better to follow the trend, that's for sure so the trend in large time frames is often a reference even for counter trend traders.

both of them are good and can be a guideline for profit, but the trader must know which style best suits him in order to choose whether to counter trend or follow the trend.

I like to follow trends even from the start when I learned trading and making transactions. I have never used or even known counter trends.

if you believe in one of these trading styles, don't hesitate because many people think that counter trend violates the meaning, even though I don't think so.

choosing a counter trend is not wrong, it's just that we have to have a strong reason that can make counter trend analysis have the optimal profit potential.

Traders with good knowledge will be able to take advantage of conditions against the trend or follow them, because they already understand how to deal with the market. 
For new traders, it is advisable to follow trends, use easy analysis to find out trends and follow trends.

It is better if you are a beginner, it is better to follow the trend because it is safer and does not hurt especially if you use large capital

If you are a longterm trader and prefer to trade safe it is better to choose trading by following a running trend.

It is not right to use a counter trend when trading, especially if you are a beginner it is always emphasized to beginners

In my opinion depending on your type, whether scalping or longterm, if you are scalper, it's okay to counter trend

If I'm more comfortable following a trend by paying attention to the big tf as a reference, but if you use scalping, you should also follow the trend

Follow the trend is clearly far better and more precise, but there are some traders who use all market conditions by means of scalping techniques to benefit from rapid market price changes.
