Trend trading strategy focuses on capturing profits by riding the direction of a market trend.
For example, if Bitcoin (BTC) is currently trading at $111,581 and shows consistent higher highs and higher lows, a trader may enter a long position.
A common entry signal is a golden cross—when the 50-day moving average crosses above the 200-day moving average.
A stop-loss can be set below the recent swing low, say at $107,000. The trade is held as long as the trend continues, with exit signals like MACD bearish crossover or trendline breaks.
Trend trading suits medium to long-term traders.
