There is no particular problem with not training your eyes to gauge the market with FX; as long as you follow the trend with a momentum-based approach, there’s nothing to worry about.
There are many people who talk about market trends in FX
Those people are skilled at speaking market talk with eloquence
At first glance such people seem like "accomplished professionals," but
in reality they talk about market theory as an ideal
They convey their own view of the market in an appealing way
When you actually practice trading in the real world
you often see fairly basic mistakes such as
"not being able to cut losses with reverse trading" or "hesitating to cut losses"
Because market theory is not a method that can be elevated to reality
it is always about an ideal when talking about the market
However, the know-how actually usable in trading
is, at its core, real and real—not something spoken of as an ideal
If spoken as an ideal, reverse averaging (averaging down) would be profitable
But if you face reality, you can see that
in reality, the trades that end up profitable or growing are the ones that win
What this means is that, in reality, trending-following is easier than contrarian trading
Indeed, traders differ in strengths and weaknesses
In fact, many traders are "unable to cut losses" or "hesitant to cut losses"
Because no one wants to incur losses
Therefore, you should make it so that your trading method takes responsibility for cutting losses
That is what trend following in a trending market is
What actually matters in FX is a strategy that can grow your account
More than market theory, it is how effectively you can implement trend-following in trending markets
