Trend Trading Strategies in Crypto
What is Trend Trading?
Trend trading means riding the direction of the market — buying in an uptrend or selling/shorting in a downtrend. The goal is to follow the trend, not fight it.

🔑 Core Strategies
1. Moving Average Crossover
Use two MAs (e.g., 50 EMA and 200 EMA)
Buy Signal: When short-term MA crosses above long-term MA (Golden Cross)
Sell Signal: When it crosses below (Death Cross)
2. Higher Highs & Higher Lows
In an uptrend, buy after each pullback to a higher low
Confirmation: Bounce from support or trendline
3. RSI Trend Support
Use RSI (Relative Strength Index) to confirm trend strength
In uptrends: RSI stays above 40–50
Look for bullish RSI bounces at 50 for re-entries
4. Trendline Bounce Strategy
Draw a trendline under rising lows or over falling highs
Enter trades on touch and bounce off trendline support/resistance
5. Volume Confirmation
Always check volume to confirm the trend strength
Rising prices + rising volume = healthy trend

🧠 Tips for Trend Traders
Use stop-loss below trendline or previous low
Don't trade against the trend — "Trend is your friend"
Combine technical tools (MA, RSI, MACD) for higher accuracy
Be patient — trend trading is not scalping
