New traders chase price…
Experienced traders follow the trend.
One of the first things I teach any serious trader is this:
"Never fight the trend — align with it."
It’s not just a quote. It’s survival.
A strong trend simplifies the market.
You don’t need to predict tops or bottoms —
you just need to identify direction, momentum, and structure.
Here’s what I focus on when trading trends:
1. Higher Highs & Higher Lows (or Lower Lows & Lower Highs) –
That’s the foundation of any clean trend.
2. EMA Alignment –
When short-term EMAs (like 5 or 21) stay above long-term EMAs (like 100 or 200), I know the market is trending strong.
3. Pullbacks Are Entries, Not Exit Signals –
Most traders panic at retracements. I look at them as discounted entries.
4. Volume Confirmation –
A healthy trend usually has rising volume on impulsive moves and fading volume on pullbacks.
The trend doesn’t guarantee profits —
But it gives you context to make smarter decisions, cut noise, and ride momentum rather than fight it.
Trade with the flow, not against it
