#TrendTradingStrategy Trend trading or trend following is a trading strategy that involves identifying the direction of a prevailing trend in financial markets and then buying or selling assets according to that trend. Price action is the ability to read the market in its purest state, without relying on the noise of indicators. Its core philosophy is simple yet powerful: "the trend is your friend." The goal is not to predict the future, but to react to the story that price tells us in real time.
The strategy is based on identifying the dominant direction of the market, whether it is a sequence of higher highs and higher lows (uptrend) or lower highs and lower lows (downtrend). Instead of chasing the price at its peak, the patient trader waits for a pullback to a key level of support or resistance.
Entry is validated with a specific candlestick signal — such as an engulfing, a pin bar, or a doji — indicating that the original strength is regaining control. It is a methodology that demands discipline, but aligns your trades with the main flow of capital, increasing the probability of success.
